Questions and Answers

In the context of the text, what is the formula for gravitational potential energy?

  • $m \times h \times g$ (correct)
  • $m \times g$
  • $m \times g \div h$
  • $m \times h$

    • What type of energy is associated with a body's higher position above the earth?

  • Chemical potential energy
  • Elastic potential energy
  • Kinetic energy
  • Gravitational potential energy (correct)

    • How is potential energy related to the work done on a body against gravity?

  • The work done is equal to the kinetic energy stored in the object.
  • The work done is stored as potential energy in the object. (correct)
  • The work done is unrelated to the object's height.
  • The work done is proportional to the object's weight.
