Question

as speed (velocity) increases, potential energy increases. true false

Explanation:

Potential energy \(U = mgh\) (where \(m\) is mass, \(g\) is acceleration due to gravity, \(h\) is height). Kinetic energy \(K=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\) (where \(v\) is velocity). Potential energy depends on height and mass, not on speed. As speed increases, kinetic energy increases (if mass is constant), not potential energy.

Answer:

False
