Standards: To Develop a model to describe that when the arrangement of objects interacting at a
distance changes, different amounts of potential energy are stored in the system.

Q1. Read each question carefully then circle the correct answer. ( /4 marks)

1- Which of these has elastic potential energy?

a. a vase sitting on a shelf
b. a stretched rubber band
c. a child moving down a slide
d. sugars stored in the molecules of food

2- Which distance between two magnets in a repulsive magnetic field would produce the
largest potential energy?
a. 5 cm
b. 10 cm
c. 15 cm
d. 20 cm
Q2. A magnet passes over a paper clip, and the clip rises and sticks to the magnet.

a- Compare the energy of the paper clip before the magnet was introduced and after it is
stuck to the magnet. Identify the form of energy that changed for the paper clip.

The energy of the paper clip before The energy of the paper clip after
introducing the magnet introducing the magnet

b- Explain whether the energy increased or decreased.

c- Explain your answers in terms of the change of a property that resulted in the change of
energy.
