Answers
The correct response is:
**the object’s mass and height, and acceleration due to gravity**
This is because potential energy (specifically gravitational potential energy) is calculated using the formula \( PE = mgh \), where \( PE \) is potential energy, \( m \) is mass, \( g \) is acceleration due to gravity, and \( h \) is height.
