c. height
Yes
U = m g h
.... assuming no other energy storage device like a spring or a capacitor is around.
U = m g h
.... assuming no other energy storage device like a spring or a capacitor is around.
Yes, assuming there are no other energy storage devices present, potential energy is calculated as U = mgh where m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the object above some reference point.
