Explain how the mass and height affect/s the potential energy...
it affects the potential energy the gravitational potential energy of an object are directly the proportional to its height above the position. A doubling of the height will result in a doubling of the gravitational potential energy.
•A tripling of the height will result in a tripling of the gravitational potential energy.
If one object is heavier than the other at the same height, the heavier object will have more GPE. As the ball falls towards the ground, its gravitational potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.•
