Abalanced ball on a basketball hoop is potential energy or kinectic energy?

Potential energy as the basket ball has no net movement so it thus cannot be kinetic
Also since the objects height off the ground has increased its gravitational potential energy will increase
As GPE= height*mass*gfs
So (gravitational) potential energy increases as there is now a height above zero

potential energy

Explanation:

An object has potential energy if it is above the ground. For example, if the basketball is sitting still on a table, it has potential energy but no kinetic energy. Potential energy is the stored energy of position possessed by an object. Potential energy is associated with forces that act on a body in a way that the total work done by these forces on the body depends only on the initial and final positions of the body in space. So the balanced ball on basket ball hoop has stored energy in it i.e. potential energy.

D-no effect on the rate
