Question

The gravitational potential energy of an object will not be affected by changing the path, provided the height is same

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

The equation for gravitational potential energy is given by PE = $m\times g\times h$, where h is the vertical displacement.
Thus, the gravitational potential energy is path independent and is not affected by the path followed provided the height remains same.
