Question

Assuming gravitational potential energy $^{'} U^{'}$ at ground level to be zero.

All objects are made up of same material.
$U_{P} =$ gravitational potential energy of solid sphere
$U_{Q} =$ gravitational potential energy of solid cube
$U_{R} =$ gravitational potential energy of solid cone
$U_{S} =$ gravitational potential energy of solid cylinder

U_{S} > U_{P}

Solution

The correct option is D $U_{S} > U_{R}$
$U_{Q} > U_{S} > U_{P} > U_{R}$
$∵ M_{Q} > M_{S} > M_{P} > M_{R}$ and $C M$ of cone is at smallest height.
