Answer:
Ep = 3924 [J]
Explanation:
To calculate this value we must use the definition of potential energy which tells us that it is the product of mass by the acceleration of gravity by height.

where:
Ep = potential energy [J] (units of Joules)
m = mass = 40 [kg]
g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]
h = elevation = 10 [m]
![E_{p} =40*9.81*10\\E_{p} = 3924 [J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bp%7D%20%3D40%2A9.81%2A10%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%203924%20%5BJ%5D)
The correct answer is "None of the above; all of these statements are valid." All the statements namely, it depends on the particle's charge, it depends on the strength of the external magnetic field, it depends on the particle's velocity, and it acts at right angles to the direction of the particle's motion are all valid. Thank you for posting your question. I hope this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.
