How can you justify that a body kept at a greater height has larger energy?

It requires energy to lift an object against the force of gravity, and this energy can be recovered (for example, converted to movement) if the object goes back down, so it makes sense to think that the energy went somewhere.

What is the relationship between frequency and energy-?
the higher the frequency the higher the energy
What is unit of measure for the energy that is stored in food?
This energy is measured in joules (J) or for larger quantities (greater values) KiloJoules. (KJ)
What does the wavelength of an EM wave tell about its energy?
The shorter the wavelength of a wave, the higher its energy.
What two factors determines the intensity of a sound?
The intensity of a sound is determined by the rate and density of energy transfer. The larger the amplitude, the greater the intensity, and the louder the sound.
Is bullet knockdown power only related to velocity irregardless of weight and caliber?
No. The size-weight of the bullet also affects the knockdown power. Power, kinetic energy, force and momentum: they are all related, and each one carries a 'mass' component. It is, more expressly. the size of the Force or momentum of a moving object that determines its affect on other objects; and force and momentum are directly determined by both - the speed of the moving object and the size of its mass. As it requires a greater force to move the larger bullet in the first place, which therefore means greater energy expended to do so, so at the other end that greater energy is conserved in the larger bullet, and therefore hits its target with greater force and energy.

Why does reducing a molecule give that molecule greater potential energy?
Reducing the size of a molecule gives that molecule greater potential energy because the molecule isn't using that energy since it is smaller. Being larger would make less potential energy.
How does potential and kinetic energy affected by the mass of the ball?
Other things being equal, both potential and kinetic energy will be larger if the mass is greater.
How much greater is a triangle with a base of 12 in and a height of 17 in than a triangle with a base of 8 in and a height of 15 in?
Comparing the areas: The larger triangle has an areas of 102 sq in the smaller 60 sq in.
Why does the mass of a meteorite affect the depth of the crater?
The kinetic energy of the falling meteorite depends on its mass. So with greater mass larger kinetic energy. With this larger enegy, it could do more work and so it makes deep on its falling.
Larger a nucleus is the greater its?
the larger the nucleus is, the greater the cell's mass
Why are some craters on the moon bigger than others?
It all depends on the amount of kinetic energy the crater has when it hits the moon. The larger the height, and the more kinetic energy the crater has when it hits the moon the larger the diameter of the crater and the more deeper it is. Hope this helps!
What does greater than mean in maths?
Numerically larger. 6 is greater than 5.
How does the size of landmass relates to species diversity?
Larger landmasses have greater diversity.
What does the wavelength of an EM wave tell about its energy?
The shorter the wavelength of a wave, the higher its energy.
Why do materials get a little larger when they get hotter?
when materials get hot their molecules get energy,speed up and exert greater force on the edges due to which materials expand.
