Two Paths lead to the top of a big hill. One is steep and direct, while the other is twice as long but less steep. How much more potential energy would you gain taking the longer path?

Two Paths lead to the top of a big hill. One is steep and direct, while the other is twice as long but less steep. How much more potential energy would you gain taking the longer path?
A. The same
B. Twice as much
C. half as much
D. You gain no PE in either case.

A. both EPE and GPE decrease 
B. EPE increases and GPE decreases 
C. both EPE and GPE increase
