Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Gravitational potential energy depends on the ____ and ____ of the object.
A
Height and mass
B
Friction and movement
C
Mass and Movement
D
Height and Friction
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Thus, Gravitational potential energy of an object depends on its mass of the object and its height from the surface of earth and acceleration due to gravity.

Detailed explanation-2: -The gravitational potential energy of an object is dependent upon the mass of the object. TRUE-The equation states that PEgrav = m•g•h; PE is dependent upon mass. If the mass of an elevated object is doubled, then its gravitational potential energy will be doubled as well.

Detailed explanation-3: -As expressed by the equation, potential energy depends upon the mass and the height of the object. Any increase in these two quantities will lead to an increase in the amount of potential energy possessed by the object.
