Question
- an apple hanging on a tree has...? (this could have several correct answers, what is the main one?) 1 point elastic potential energy gravitational potential energy radiant energy
Brief Explanations
Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object has due to its position in a gravitational field. An apple hanging on a tree has height above the ground in Earth's gravitational field. Elastic potential energy requires an object to be deformed elastically (not the case for a hanging - still apple). Radiant energy is related to electromagnetic radiation and not the main energy form here.
