Question

In a computer simulation, Juan moves a magnet (Magnet 1) closer to another magnet (Magnet 2) that cannot move. Which statement accurately describes the change in potential energy?
a
The potential energy does not change because the magnets in the system do not change.


b
The potential energy increases because Magnet 1 moves against the magnetic force.


c
The potential energy decreases because Magnet 1 moves against the magnetic force.


d
The potential energy decreases because Magnet 1 moves in the same direction a

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The potential energy decreases because Magnet 1 moves against the magnetic force. If it was increased it would be kinetic

Answer 2

I think the answer you are looking for it C.
