Amplify Magnetic Fields

What will happen between these toy train cars?

• They will not move because they are not touching

• They will move closer because the magnetic force will pull them together

• They will move away from each other because the magnetic force will push them away

• They will move away because they are not touching

The train is moved towards the magnet that cannot move. What happens?

• Potential energy decreases because the train moves against the force

• Potential energy decreases because the train moves with the force

• Potential energy increases because the train moves against the force

• Potential energy increases because the train moves with the force

A spring is compressed by someone pushing down on it. Potential energy is stored. What occurs when the spring is let go?

• Potential energy increases so the speed of the spring will increase

• Potential energy decreases so the speed of the spring will decrease

• Kinetic energy increases so the speed of the spring will increase

• Kinetic energy decreases so the speed of the spring will decrease
