Answer:

(B) the increase in the car's potential energy is 3,660,000 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the car, m = 1,000 kg

height through the car was drove, h = 366 m

acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s²

The increase in the car's potential energy is calculated as;

P.E = mgh

P.E = 1000 x 10 x 366

P.E = 3,660,000 J

Therefore, the increase in the car's potential energy is 3,660,000 J
