Potential energy is defined by formula

U = mgh

here

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height

Now here two different stones are located at same height

while mass of stone A is twice that of stone B

so here we can say potential energy of A is

U_a = (2m)gh

Similarly potential energy of B is

U_b = mgh

now if we take the ratio of two energy

\frac{U_a}{U_b} = 2

so we can say potential energy of stone A is two times the potential energy of B

How would planting trees and grass on a hillside help protect the land from these processes?
Arada [10]

Planting trees and grass on a hillside keeps the dirt and soil compacted so nothing fall.

I really do hope that this helps. ^_^
