How does height affect the amount of potential energy of an object?

.potential energy equalls mgh, where m is mass of object, g is gravity, h is height of the object placed from the ground level. . When height increases potential energy also increases..


The stored energy an object has a result of its height above the ground is?

Gravitational potential energy or GPE.


How does potential energy vary height?

The higher above the ground an object is, the greater its potential energy.


When a coconut falls when does it have gravitational potential energy?

An object has potential engergy when it is any height above the ground. The object does not have to be moving to have engergy. This is like a stored energy. It takes energy to move or raise an object to a height level. This object now has stored that energy.


How does energy transform as an object falls from a height above the ground?

Height above the ground, and mass of the object itself.


The energy an object has because of its position is called?

potential energy it is directly proportional to height of object above ground


How would doubling the height of an object change the object's potential energy?

Also double since potential energy is the energy stored in a body due it's position.
