The data below was recorded during an investigation of the relationship between potential energy and the mass and height of an object.
Height Data
When a 2 kg weight was lifted 3 meters above the floor, it had 58.8 Joules of potential energy.When a 2 kg weight was lifted 6 meters above the floor, its potential energy doubled.
Mass Data
When a 3 kg weight was lifted 2 meters above the floor, it had 58.8 Joules of potential energy.When a 6 kg weight was lifted 2 meters above the floor, its potential energy doubled.
Which of the following graphs BEST represents the relationship between potential energy and the mass and height of an object?
As an AI text-based model, I cannot directly generate or view visual content such as graphs. However, I can describe the relationship between potential energy, mass, and height based on the given data.
From the given data, it can be observed that changes in the potential energy of an object depend directly on its height and mass. When the height is doubled, the potential energy also doubles. Similarly, when the mass is doubled, the potential energy also doubles.
Based on this information, the relationship between potential energy and height can be described as directly proportional, and the relationship between potential energy and mass can also be described as directly proportional.
To visually represent this relationship on a graph, you can plot the potential energy on the y-axis and either the height or mass on the x-axis. The resulting graph would show a linear relationship, where the potential energy increases in a linear manner as the height or mass increases.
Unfortunately, since we cannot generate or see the provided graph options, I cannot specify which graph would best represent the given data and relationship.
