What relationship exists between height and potential energy if mass is held constant?

Potential energy is directly proportional to height.


How do the different forms of potential energy depend on an objects position?

Potential energy of a body with certain mass is proportional to the vertical position of the body with respect to the ground. Potential energy of the string is proportional to second degree of displacement from the point of equilibrium.


What affects potential?

Temperature is directly proportional to kinetic energy (potential energy).eg. increase the temperature, you increase the kinetic energy of the molecules, hence you're increasing the potential energy of them.


Is it the total energy is directly proportional to the objects mass according to Einstein's equation?

No, the TOTAL energy of an object is the sum of its potential energy, kinetic energy, thermal energy, electrical energy and its inherent energy - inherent energy is given by Einstein's famous formula.
