Question

What happens to an object's gravitational potential energy as it falls from some height?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Decreases

Explanation:

As an object falls from some height, the gravitational potential energy of the object decreases.

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body.

The potential energy is mathematically expressed as:

   Potential energy  = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

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

The higher the mass and height, the more the potential energy.
