Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter C. three times as much

Explanation:

Data

First step = 6 m

Second step = 18 m

Potential energy is the energy stored that depends on its position.

Formula

Pe = mgh

m = mass; g = gravity; h = height

Potential energy of the first step

        Pe1 = 6mg

Potential energy of the second step

        Pe2 = 18mg

-Divide the Pe2 by the Pe1

        Pe2/Pe1 = 18mg/6mg

                       = 3

Why are fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), and iodine (I) in the same group of the periodic table?
Verdich [7]

Fluorine (F), Chlorine (Cl) and Iodine (I) are all found in the same group on the Periodic Table because they have similar physical properties. Since they are all Halogens, they have 7 valence electrons in their outer shell. In order to get a total of 8, they naturally combine with elements of the same isotope (itself), so D comes close to being correct, but it's not the best answer choice.
