Calculate the change of PEg for:
a) A 10.0 kg object falling 10.0 mb) A 5.0 kg object falling 10.0 m
Calculate the change of PEg per massfor each object.
Make a conclusion: what does this ratio depend on? What does it characterize?
Which force is doing work on the ball? Is the work positive or negative? Does it lead to increase or decrease of potential energy?
