Question

A magnet is removed from a refrigerator door and placed on a table. In 1–2 sentences, explain how the potential energy of the system changes in this process. (2 points)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When a magnet is removed from a refrigerator door and placed on a table, the potential energy of the system remains the same because the position of the magnet has only changed from one surface to another, and its potential energy is determined solely by its position in a magnetic field.
