A truck is parked at the bottom of a hill. It moves from the bottom of a hill
and parks at the top. How does the truck's potential energy when it is at
the bottom of the hill compare to its potential energy when it is at the top
of the hill?

A. The truck's potential energy is lower at the top of the hill compared to when it is at the
bottom of the hill.
B. The truck's potential energy is the same at the top of the hill compared to when it is at
the bottom of the hill.
C. The truck's potential energy is greater at the top of the hill compared to when it is at
the bottom of the hill.
D. The truck's potential energy is zero at the top of the hill compared to when it is at the
bottom of the hill.

potential energy is stored energy that an object has due to its position or chemical composition. Since the truck has the possibility to move down the hill when it is at the top of the hill, it has a great amount of potential energy, howver when its at the bottom of the hill, it doesn’t have the possibility to move or can move v little due to its positions, therefore it has little to no potienatal energy.
