the 3) Today we found that when the magnets are oriented so that the forces are repulsive, moving them closer together stores more energy in the system. A student proposes following idea: Changing the distance between two magnets affects the amount of potential energy stored in the system, even when the magnetic forces are attractive. The student decides to collect data to support or refute this idea with evidence. The student takes two disc magnets and flips one of them around so that there are attractive forces between them. Then the student pulls the magnets 1 millimeter apart and lets go. They come back together and make a sound when they collide. 1 mm sound Then the student pulls the magnets 3 millimeters apart and lets go. They come back together and make a louder sound than before when they collide. 3 mm Missing 34135 louder sound Do the results of this student's investigation support or refute their initial idea (shown in italics above)?
