Kenley Herrera · Answer 1

Gravitational potential energy is different than spring energy which is elastic potential energy so you can eliminate a and b. and the potential energy of a spring is given by 1/2*k*x^2 so obviously the higher the spring constant k the higher the elastic potential energy. so the correct answer would be C
