Magnets
How many poles do magnets have?
What do magnetic field lines represent?
Force
What is stored energy?
Potential Energy
When do attracting magnets have more potential energy?
When they are apart
What are the 2 poles on magnets called?
North Pole and South Pole
In what direction are magnetic field lines drawn on a magnet?
North to South
What is motion energy?
Kinetic Energy
When do repelling magnets have more potential energy?
When they are together
What happens when a south pole is near a south pole?
What do the magnetic field lines look when you have 2 magnets that are aligned and repelling?
See Board
What is needed to convert potential energy into kinetic energy?
Force
What converts the potential energy in magnets into kinetic energy?
Magnetic Force
What happens when a north pole is near a south pole?
The magnets will atract
What do the magnetic field lines look like when you have 2 magnets that are aligned and attracting?
See board
What happens to the amount of potential energy as the amount of kinetic energy increases?
The amount of potential energy decreases
How do you transfer potential energy into a magnetic system? Hint: Do you move with the magnetic force or against the magnetic force?
Move magnets against the magnetic force
What happens when magnets are misaligned?
They attract and repel
What do the magnetic field lines look like when you have misaligned repelling magnets?
See the board
What type of energy is transferred into a system when you move an object against a force?
Potential Energy
What happens to the amount of potential energy in a magnetic system the closer you move repelling magnets together?
It increases.
