Why would two electrons repel each other if they were close together?

• They have like charges, so they experience an attractive force.

• They have opposite charges, so they experience a repulsive force.

• They have like charges, so they experience a repulsive force.

• They have opposite charges, so they experience an attractive force.

The push or pull that occurs when a magnet interacts with another object is known as the

• magnetic force

• magnetic field

• magnetism

• magnet

How is a magnet able to pick up bits of metal without actually touching them?

• The magnet is surrounded by an electric field that attracts the metal.

• The metal exerts a repulsive force on the magnet.

• There is an invisible magnetic field around the magnet where it exerts magnetic force.

• The electric force from the magnet attracts the bit of metal.

In a typical battery,

• the negative end has more electrical potential energy than the positive end.

• the negative end has the same amount of electrical potential energy as the positive end.

• the positive end has more electrical potential energy than the negative end.

• voltage determines which end of the battery has more electrical potential energy.
