The correct answer is A) they are directly proportional.Potential energy is the energy an object possesses due to its position or configuration in a force field gravitational field of the Earth. The formula for gravitational potential energy is:Potential Energy (PE) = mass (m) × acceleration due to gravity (g) × height (h)From this formula, we can see that the potential energy is directly proportional to the mass of the object. As the mass of the object increases, the potential energy also increases proportionally, assuming the acceleration due to gravity and the height remain constant.Therefore, the relationship between potential energy and mass is that they are directly proportional.
