The formula for gravitational potential energy is ...

Grav PE = (mass) · (gravity) · (height)

We can see from this simple formula that mass and height have <em>EQUAL </em>influence on the Gravitational PE. If EITHER of them is multiplied by some factor, the Gravitational PE gets multiplied by the same factor.

So the answer to the question is: <em> No </em>.

Art [367]

Answer:

$\Delta s = 1775.510\,m$

Explanation:

The minimum distance for takeoff is:

$\Delta s = \Delta s_{1} + \Delta s_{2}$

$\Delta s = \frac{v_{f}^{2}-v_{o}^{2}}{2\cdot a} + v_{f}\cdot \Delta t$

$\Delta s = \frac{(100\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}-(0\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{2\cdot (3.92\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})}+(100\,\frac{m}{s} )\cdot (5\,s)$

$\Delta s = 1775.510\,m$
