When the height of the cylinder increased by a factor of 5, from 100 m to 500 m, what happened to the cylinder’s gravitational potential energy? it decreased by a factor of 10. it decreased by a factor of 5. it increased by a factor of 5. it increased by a factor of 10.

option b)

It increased by a factor of 5

Given that,

the height of cylinder before increment = 100m

the height of cylinder after increment = 500m

factor by which it is increased = 5

Formula to calculate gravitational potential energy

where m = mass

            g = acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.81 m/s²

            h = height

GPE' = new gravitational P.E

mg500/mg100 =  GPE' / GPE

cancelling mg

500/100 = GPE' / GPE

5 = GPE' / GPE

GPE' = 5GPE

C) It increased by a factor of 5.

hi there!

your question asks at which segment does freezing occur.

since we're talking about water, the freezing point of water will be 32 degrees fahrenheit or below.

hope this ! ~

answer: a. same unit
