Question

Explain how potential energy is affected by:
A) Mass:


B) Height:

Answer 1

A. Mass

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of gravitational potential energy an object has depends on its height and mass. The heavier the object and the higher it is above the ground, the more gravitational potential energy it holds. Gravitational potential energy increases as weight and height increases.

Answer 2

A) Mass :

• Potential energy is directly proportional to mass, if mass increases, also potential energy increases and the reverse is true.

B) Height :

• Potential energy is directly proportional to height, if height increases, also potential energy increases and the reverse is true.

Step-by-step explanation:
