Answer: Fourth option. It increased by a factor of 3.

Solution:

m1=1.0 kg

Cylinder's gravitational potential energy: Ep=m*g*h

Ep1=(1.0 kg)*g*h

Ep1=g*h

m2=3.0 kg

Ep2=(3.0 kg)*g*h

Ep2=3*g*h

Replacing g*h by Ep1 in the equation above:

Ep2=3*Ep1

Then, the cylinder's gravitational potential energy increased by a factor of 3.

Which expression is equivalent to g−m ÷ gn?
Vinvika [58]

<u>Answer</u>

(g²n - m)/(gm)


<u>Explanation</u>

g - m ÷ gn = g - m/gn  

Make the equation have the same denominator

  g - m ÷ gn = g - m/gn    = (ggn)/gn  - m/gn

                                          = (g²n)/gn - m/gm

Since they have the same denominator, we can carry out the subtraction on the numerator and then put them under one denominator.

                                      (g²n)/gn - m/gm  = (g²n - m)/(gm)
