I think its true. hope this helps.
Given: The mass of stone (m) = 0.5 kg
Raised from heights (h₁) = 1.0 m to (h₂) = 2.0 m
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
To find: The change in potential energy of the stone
Formula: The potential energy (P) = mgh
where, all alphabets are in their usual meanings.
Now, we shall calculate the change in potential energy of the stone
Δ P = P₂ - P₁ = mg (h₂ - h₁)
or, = 0.5 kg ×9.8 m/s² ×(2.0 m - 1.0 m)
or, = 4.9 J
Hence, the required change in the potential energy of the stone will be 4.9 J
The correct answer is the third one: move toward the ground state. Remember please that Elements produce their spectrum when their electrons move toward the ground state. Hope this is very useful
