If we increase the velocity of a car moving on a flat surface to four times its original speed, its potential energy ….a .will be twice its original energyb. will not change c. will be 4 times its original energy d. will be 16 times its original energy. |

Answer» b. Will not change Explanation:We have Potential Energy = mghWhich means, potential energy depends on HEIGHT of the object from the GROUND, acceleration due to GRAVITY (g) and mass of the object. It is INDEPENDENT of velocity, so even if velocity changes, potential energy will not change. |
