Gravity’s effect on objects potential to move is referred to as ____ potential energy.
A
elastic
B
gravitational
C
kinetic
D
electrical
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The potential energy that a huge object has in relation to another massive object due to gravity is known as gravitational potential energy. When the items fall towards one other, the potential energy associated with the gravitational field is released (turned into kinetic energy).

Detailed explanation-2: -If an object falls from one point to another point inside a gravitational field, the force of gravity will do positive work on the object, and the gravitational potential energy will decrease by the same amount.

Detailed explanation-3: -Gravitational energy is potential energy stored in an object based on its distance from the Earth. Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object or substance. Gravitational energy is a form of potential energy.
