One object had a mass of 2kg and was lifted at a speed of 2m/s the distance being 10 m, the other had a mass of 4kg and was lifted at a rate of 3m/s the distance also being 10m. which object has more potential energy, the gravity being 9.8m/s^2

    Potential Energy = mgh.

    1st: m = 2kg. PE = 2 * 9.8 * 10 = 196 J.

    2nd m = 4 kg. PE = 4 * 9.8 * 10 = 392 J.

    Hence the second ball, has more potential energy, because it had the greater mass.
