2. In a computer simulation, Jeffrey moves a magnet (Magnet 2) toward another magnet (Magnet 1) that cannot move. What happens to the potential energy in the system of magnets?
The potential energy does not change because the magnets in the system do not change.
b
The potential energy increases because Magnet 2 moves against the magnetic force.
The potential energy decreases because Magnet 2 moves against the magnetic force.
The potential energy decreases because Magnet 2 moves in the same direction as the magnetic force
