1. The potential energy of an object maximises as its velocity increases.
2. An object is thrown from the ground with a velocity of 5 m/s. If the object has a mass of 2kg, what will be its potential energy at the top-most point of its trajectory? (Assume g = 10 m/s2)
3. The potential energy of an object of constant mass and fixed reference is determined by its _____
4. The potential energy of an object cannot be increased by internal forces.
5. The potential energy of an object cannot be increased by internal forces.
6. Since the potential energy of an object depends on the acceleration due to gravity and since the acceleration due to gravity decreases as altitude increases, we can conclude that the potential energy of an object decreases as altitude increases.
