The PE of a magnet in the presence of another magnet is related to- A. only how close the magnets are together.

B. only the direction in which the poles point.

C. how close the magnets are together and how fast they are moving.

D. how close the magnets are together and which direction the poles point.

D. how close the magnets are together and which direction the poles point.

Explanation:

The potential energy of a magnet in the presence of another magnet is related to how close the magnets are together and which direction the poles point.

When opposite poles of a magnet are aligned, there is an attractive force between them. The farther apart magnets are the more the potential energy.

The two magnets will attract each other so as to minimize the potential energy between them.

For opposite poles, the closer the magnets are, the higher the potential energy
