Key Stage 3
Meaning
If a magnetic object is placed in this magnetic field it will have energy in the Magnetic Potential Energy Store.
The magnetic potential energy store is the energy stored in a magnetic object that is in a magnetic field.
About Magnetic Potential Energy
- The stronger the magnetic field the more energy in the magnetic potential energy store.
- The greater the Magnetic Susceptibility the more energy in the magnetic potential energy store.
Key Stage 4
Meaning
The magnetic potential energy store is the energy stored in a magnetic object that is in a magnetic field.
About Magnetic Potential Energy
- Magnetic Potential Energy is a potential energy due to the position of a magnetic object in a magnetic field.
- The magnetic potential energy store of an object is related to two important factors:
- The strength of magnets - The stronger the magnets the greater the magnetic potential energy store.
- The distance between magnets - The greater the distance between 'like poles' the smaller the magnetic potential energy, the greater the distance between 'opposite poles' the greater the magnetic potential energy.
