Doubling an object’s height will have what effect on its potential energy due to gravity?

Physics

Answer:

doubled

Explanation:

The energy possessed by the virtue of position or configuration of the body is called potential energy of the body.

The formula for the potential energy is given by

P.E = m g h

Where, m be the mass of the body, g be the acceleration due to gravity and h be the height.

So, if the height is doubled, the potential energy is also doubled.

Potential energy due to gravity = Ep = mgh [symbols have their usual meaning ]
Evidently, HALVING the mass will make Ep , HALF its previous value. So, It will be halved.

Which best describes a similarity between power plants that use water as an energy source and those that use wind as an energy s
disa [49]
The hydropower plant and wind turbines both uses kinetic energy to produce mechanical power and convert the mechanical energy using a generator to an electrical energy. They both have the process to produce energy but they differ in the source the hydropower plant uses water to whit the wind turbines power plant uses wind. Therefore the answer is letter B.

Helga [31]
No friction present means: Ek = Ep

So Ek = mgh = 10 * 9.8 * 2 = 196 J
