Question

Potential energy increases with the______

  1. Force
  2. Height
  3. Velocity
  4. Gravity

hintHint:

Potential energy depends on height.

The correct answer is: Height


    • The energy stored within the object is known as potential energy.
    • The formula of potential energy is:
    PE=mgh
    where PE= potential energy,  m= mass of the object,  g= acceleration due to gravity (this is a constant 9.8m/s2) and h=height
    If the mass is constant, then
    P E alphah
    Hence, when the height increases the potential energy of an object also increases.
