Attract
What means to pull objects toward another
Energy
What has the ability to make things move or change
A magnetic force can attract or repel an object at a distance
What can magnetic fields do
If they were misaligned, then there would be field lines depicting the connection between opposite poles of different magnets
If the magnets were misaligned, what would the field line data look like
When they were held in place, they had potential energy, but when they were let go, potential energy converted into kinetic energy
How did potential energy and kinetic energy change when the two magnets repelled and moved apart
Kinetic Energy
What is the energy an object has because its moving
Magnetic Field
What is the space around a magnet in which magnetic forces can act on objects
In a system of magnets, there is a repelling force between like poles and attracting force between opposite poles
What two forces are in a system of magnets
Barry's Evidence:
The poles of the magnets were facing opposite directions in the two tests
How was Barry’s second test different from his first test

It showed that the Wednesday launch had more energy and the difference between the Wednesday launch and the other launches was huge
What did the model show you about how the potential energy was different between the launches
Variable
What is something that can be changed and may be measured
Potential Energy
What is the energy that is stored in an object or system
The pattern of magnetic field lines around attracting magnets is different from the pattern of magnetic field lines around repelling magnets
What are the pattern of magnetic fields on attracting and repelling magnets
Convert
What is to change from one type to another
Isolate
What is to separate or set apart
A magnetic force can convert potential energy stored in a magnetic field to kinetic energy
What can magnetic forces do
Magnetic Field Line
What is a line that connects opposite magnetic poles and represent the strength and direction of the magnetic field
Transfer
What is to move from one object to another or one place to another
Creating a model of a magnetic system and defining its parts helps scientists test and explain the relationship between force and energy
What can models help with
