When a person holds an object, it has potential energy. how will the potential energy change if the person lifts the object above his or her head? group of answer choices the object's potential energy will be the same. the object's potential energy will be zero. the object's potential energy will be greater. the object's potential energy will be less.

The potential energy of object will be greater.

Explanation:

The energy due to the position of an object is known as potential energy. The mathematical relationship of potential energy is given below:  

                      Potential Energy = P.E = mgh     ………. (i)

Equation (i) shows that potential energy is directly proportional to height “h”.

Now consider, initially he or she holds the object near the belly. When he or she brings it over the head the height of the object increases. Consequently, the potential energy of the object will also increase.
