Objective: SWBAT writing evidence based arguments by describing how distance and motion impact potential and kinetic energy in magnetic systems.

Do Now: 

“If I change____(IV), then ____ (DV) changes.”
Move the magnets distance
Amount of energy changes

Match the correct variable as the IV or DV below

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Move the magnets distance		Independent Variable (IV)
Move the magnets distance		Dependent Variable (DV)

Guided Notes: 

Part 1: Planning Your Investigation
Change the distance between the magnets distance
Change type of magnet (strong/weak)
Analyze stored energy (PE)

Claim A: More potential energy can be stored by moving a magnet against the magnetic force of a stronger magnet than a weak magnet.

Claim B: More potential energy can be stored by moving a magnet against the magnetic force at closer distance.

Part 2: Gathering Evidence About Claims
What affects the amount of potential energy stored in the magnetic field when a magnet is moved against a magnetic force?

Exit Ticket:

Pablo sets identical magnetic carts on two tracks. At the end of each track is a blue magnet that cannot move. Pablo can move the carts one space to the left or one space to the right. Which movement (left or right, AND on which track) will increase the potential energy in the system the most?

CFS:
Accurately describes the relationship between magnetic position and the force/field in a system
Accurately describes the relationship between magnetic forces and movement of magnets in a system
