Question

Which factor affects elastic potential energy but not gravitational potential energy?

spring constant

acceleration due to gravity

distance from a given position

amount of matter in the object

Answer 1

sprig constant

Step-by-step explanation:

it is correct on edge

Answer 2

The correct answer is the spring constant (k)

Step-by-step explanation:

• Elastic potential energy: Epe = ½ * k * Δx²

k = spring constant

Δx = displacement

• Gravitational ptential energy: Ep = m*g*h

g = (acceleration due to gravity)

m = mass

h = relative height of an object to some reference point
