Which actions would INCREASE the potential energy of a cup placed on a kitchen counter? Choose all of the correct

answer(s). Oh

Fill the cup with water

Add a handle to the cup

Lift the cup over the counter.

Explanation:

The options given are:

- Slide the cup away from the edge

- Fill the cup with water

- Turn the cup upside down

- Add a handle to the cup

- Move the cup to the floor

- Lift the cup over the counter

Potential energy refers to the energy that's being stored in a particular object. The formula for potential energy is given as:

PE = mgh

where,

m = mass

g = gravitational field.

h = height

The actions that'll increase the potential energy of the cup that's placed on the kitchen counter will be:

1. Fill the cup with water - This increases the weight of the cup.

2. Add a handle to the cup - The mass is increased as well.

3. Lift the cup over the counter - The height is increased.

answer: the metamorphic rocks are formed when they are exposed to high pressure and high temperatures. this happens when one of the earth's plates comes in contact with the other plate by traveling in opposite directions, straight into each other or slipping under one another. the friction that is caused by this activity results in   melting of rocks and when it cools they are known as metamorphic rocks. this process needs a controlled amount of pressure and temperature otherwise it may turn into magma.
