The formula is Pe = F * d If you double D, you are going to double Pe
Try it. They don't give a number for F but you can invent one. Call F = 5 N

Pe = 5 N * 8 m
Pe = 40 Nm = 40 J

Pe = 5 N * 16 m
Pe = 80 Nm = 80 J

Double the distance means double the Pe

Pick C.

the right choice is twice as much
