Jamal is playing with magnetic toy vehicles. He has two identical magnetic vehicles (purple and green) on different sides of a center magnet that cannot move. His friend Simone challenges him to move one vehicle one space to the left or the
right in order to get the largest increase in potential energy. That means Jamal can move the purple car to point Aor
point B, or he can move the green car to point C or point D.
Explain which movement Jamal should make (which car and which point), and why that movement will result in the
largest increase in potential energy. Describe the magnetic force that will act on the vehicle he moves.
