What is the main difference between the formulas for kinetic energy (KE) and gravitational potential energy (PE)? A. KE depends on position and PE depends on motion. B. KE depends on motion and PE depends on position. C. Both energies depend on motion, but only KE depends on position. D. Both energies depend on position, but only PE depends on motion.

Respuesta :

Correct Answer:

B. KE depends on motion and PE depends on position.

Answer:

B. KE depends on motion and PE depends on position.

Explanation:

As we know that kinetic energy is given by the formula

[tex]KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2[/tex]

so kinetic energy depends on the motion of the object

now gravitational potential energy is given by the formula

[tex]PE = mgh[/tex]

so it depends on the height or the position of the object

so here from the above two formula we can say that correct answer will be

B. KE depends on motion and PE depends on position.
