Answer : The correct option is (c).

Explanation :

The energy which is due to the height of an object under the action of gravity is called gravitational potential energy.

Mathematically, it can be written as :

P = m g h

Where,

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the object from the reference level

So, potential energy is directly proportional to both the mass and the height.

The statement about the largest increase in a mountain climber’s gravitational potential energy is "carrying twice the weight and climbing twice as high".

A 2-kg bowling ball rolls at a speed of 10 m/s on the ground.
liberstina [14]
It's kinetic energy as the ball the ball isn't raised above the ground it does not have any gravitational potential energy. 
To find the kinetic energy of the ball you will have to use the formula:
KE=0.5 x m x v squared
m being mass and v being velocity 
so the calculation is:
0.5 x 2 x 10 x 10= 100J

Is gas matter? How do you know? Hint: Remember there are 2 things we need to be considered matter.
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Gas is a state of matter that has no fixed shape and no fixed volume.

In addition to solids and liquids, gases are also a physical state in which matter can occur. All gases have weight. Unlike solids and liquids, gases will occupy the entire container that encloses them.

matter is "anything that has mass and volume (occupies space)

     <em>Gases have mass. The space between gas particles is empty. Gases can be formed as products in chemical reactions. Gas particles can form bonds between them under certain conditions</em>

<em>       Gases have volume which isn't fixed </em>(no fixed volume)<em> and no fixed shape. Gases expand to fill the space available. They can also be compressed into a very small space.</em>
