Potential Energy:

The potential energy of an object is the energy due to its position.

Mathematically,


PE=m\cdot g\cdot h

The potential energy depends on three factors,

1. Mass

2. Gravity

3. Height

The potential energy is directly proportional to the mass, gravity, and height of the object.

The options speed and size are straight-away wrong.

Assuming that here location doesn't mean height.

The correct answer would be gravity
