E = mc^2
there is a metal ball that weighs 1kg, and is on a shelf at sea level.
Move the ball up one meter.
The energy has increased, the mass is the same, so the speed of light is now higher.

OP: How much mass would the increased gravitational potential energy represent? What proportion of the total mass would it be?

It doesn't matter HOW MUCH the energy has increased. Just that Energy went up and mass didn't, and there's only one letter left to change!

Dear god, this man is a fucking genius! Someone give him the nobel prize right now before we run out of them!

you do not include the gravitational potential in the rest mass
