Question

Lucy picks up an object from the floor. How will the potential energy change if Lucy lifts the object above her head?(1 point)
Responses

Answer 1

When Lucy lifts the object above her head, the potential energy of the object increases. This is because potential energy is related to the height of an object in a gravitational field. The higher the object is lifted, the more gravitational potential energy it possesses. Therefore, there is an increase in potential energy as Lucy raises the object.
