Potential energy is a relative measure, so the answer is dependent on the assumptions we make. The potential energy in the car is going to be gravitational potential energy(PE). PE = mgh, where m is the mass, g is 9.8 m/s^2, and h is the height. So PE = 2000*9.8*h = 19600h. The final answer obviously depends on h. Most likely the problem is assuming that 30 meters under the top of the hill is considered 0 meters. Then h would be 30m and PE would equal 588 kJ.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>A) Increase the voltage by adding a bigger battery </u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

According to Ohm's law

V = IR

where V is voltage, I is current and R is the resistance. If we write the equation for resistance we would get

R= V / I

Here we can see that Voltage is directly proportional to Resistance so in order to keep the balance if we increase the resistance then we must increase the voltage to keep the current constant.
