The effects of the movement of the cars closer to the center of the magnet are ;
A) The potential energy of the Two vehicles will be increased
B) The potential energy of one car ( pink car) will change more than purple car due to the distance between the pink car and the center magnet.
Potential energy is the energy contained in a body at rest, The increase in potential energy occur when an object continues to be at rest ( i.e. opposes movement ).
When the cars are moved closer to the center magnet the cars will oppose the motion because their movement is against the magnetic forces that exist between the center magnet and the cars ( i.e. like pole repel while unlike poles attract ). so as Lucia moves the cars closer their potential energies will continually increase ( i.e. the closer the car the higher its potential energy ).
Therefore the pink car been closer to the center magnet will experience a higher change in its potential energy than the purple car.
Hence we can conclude that The effects of the movement of the cars closer to the center of the magnet are ; The potential energy of the Two vehicles will be increased, The potential energy of one car ( pink car) will change more than purple car due to the distance between the pink car and the center magnet.
