Question

Which factors determine the potential energy of an object?(1 point) Responses Gravity and position Gravity and position Mass and velocity Mass and velocity Mass and position Mass and position Weight and velocity

Answer 1

The factors that determine the potential energy of an object are **gravity and position**. Potential energy, especially gravitational potential energy, depends on the height of an object (its position) relative to a reference point and the strength of the gravitational field acting on it.

So, the correct choice is: **Gravity and position.**
