Question

3 what similar characteristic do opposite magnetic poles and objects with opposite electric charges share? a pulling the objects apart will increase their potential energy b pushing the objects together will increase their potential energy c decreasing their height will increase their potential energy

Explanation:

Opposite magnetic poles attract each other and opposite - charged objects attract each other. When you pull two attracting objects apart, you do work against the attractive force. This work is stored as potential energy. So, pulling the objects apart increases their potential energy. Pushing them together (which they naturally want to do) decreases potential energy. Decreasing height is related to gravitational potential energy in a different context and is not relevant here.

Answer:

A. Pulling the objects apart will increase their potential energy
