Which of the following examples describes an increase in potential energy? provide answer and explain. i will mark brainliest. you a basketball falling through a net roller coaster moving down the track a bicycle going down a hill a paint can being carried up a ladder

a paint can being carried up a ladder

Explanation:

Potential energy of an object is defined as:

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the gravitational acceleration

h is the height of the object measured above a reference point

From the formula, we see that the potential energy of an object increases if the height h increase, so if the object is moved upwards.

Among the choices provided, only the last one:

a paint can being carried up a ladder

describes an object whose heigth h is increased: therefore, in this situation, the potential energy of the object increases.

e/c, where e is its total energy

the answer to this is proletariats.

hope this : )
