Question

Which object has less gravitational potential energy when both have the same mass?

  1. 4m
  2. 1m
  3. Both
  4. None

hintHint:

The object that has less height has less gravitational potential energy.

The correct answer is: 1m


    • The gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to the height of the object.
    • The GPE decreases as the height decrease.
    • The object that has a 1m height has less GPE compared to the object that has a 4m height.
