An individual on earth and an individual on the moon each hold a one-kilogram roch
exactly one meter above the surface. Just as they release them, which rock has
more potential energy? (5b1; DOK 2)
OThey have the same potential energy because they have the same mass.
()They have the same potential energy because they have the same mass and are
at the same height.
The Earth rock has more potential energy because it is farther away from the
center of the Earth than the Moon rock is from the center of the Moon.
The Earth rock has more potential energy because the value of "g" is greater on
Earth than on the Moon.
