Question

Discuss an activity that shows that the higher an object is located, the greater its potential energy.

Answer 1

1. The potential energy of a body is the product of the mass of that object to the height of it from a specific point and to the acceleration due to the gravity value of that place.
2. Potential Energy, $P.E=mgh$ where m is mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.
3. A water tank kept on the rooftop at maximum height will have stored energy, hence the potential energy will be higher.
