Question

When an object is not in motion, it can still have a form of energy. What form of energy does an object have due to its

distance from Earth?
O kinetic energy
thermal energy
gravitational potential energy
O electrical potential energy

Answer 1

it's gravitational potential energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

gravitaional energy is energy of a body due to its postion or distance from earth(vertical deistance)

mathematically, GPE=mgh

where, m is mass of the object

g= is gravity

h= is vertical distance from earth in this case
