potential energy = mgh , where m is mass of body , g is acceleration due to gravity and h is given height
since both of the body are at same height above the ground , so the body having greater mass will have more potential energy
that is 20 kg body will have higher P.E

that is 20 kg body will have higher P.E

The body B having mass 20 kg has the greater potential energy. This can be explained as follows :P.E. = mgh .
The body B having mass 20 kg has the greater potential energy. This can be explained as follows :P.E. = mgh .For both the bodies gravity and height are same so the body with greater mass possesses greater potential energy.
