I think d because they are both increasing
A. A stretched catapult can do work when released so it must have potential energy.
b. A stone on the ground will not move on its own ever again so it has zero energy.
c. In order to roll an object there must be a friction force between the object and the ground (otherwise it will slide)
d. To lift a stone you must overcome the weight which is the force due to gravity.
e. Work and energy are both measured in Joules.
Electromagnetic waves can travel not only through air and solid materials, but also through the vacuum of space.

Answer:(a) With our choice for the zero level for potential energy of the car-Earth system when the car is at point B ,
U
B
=0
When the car is at point A, the potential energy of the car-Earth system is given by
U
A
=mgy
where y is the vertical height above zero level. With 135ft=41.1m, this height is found as:
y=(41.1m)sin40.0
0
=26.4m
Thus,
U
A
=(1000kg)(9.80m/s
2
)(26.4m)=2.59∗10

J
The change in potential energy of the car-Earth system as the car moves from A to B is
U
B
−U
A
=0−2.59∗10

J=−2.59∗10

J
(b) With our choice of the zero configuration for the potential energy of the car-Earth system when the car is at point A, we have U
A
=0. The potential energy of the system when the car is at point B is given by U
B
=mgy, where y is the vertical distance of point B below point A. In part (a), we found the magnitude of this distance to be 26.5m. Because this distance is now below the zero reference level, it is a negative number.
Thus,
