Question
gravitational potential energy is a function of the __ and the ____ of an object. a acceleration, height b mass, height c weight, height
Brief Explanations
The formula for gravitational potential energy is \(U = mgh\), where \(m\) is the mass of the object, \(g\) is the acceleration due to gravity (a constant near the Earth's surface), and \(h\) is the height. Since \(g\) is constant in this context, gravitational potential energy mainly depends on the mass (\(m\)) and height (\(h\)) of the object.
