GPE=M*G*H
It means Gravitational potential energy=Mass* Gravity( which is always 9.8)* Height thanx ;)
* * * * *
The value of the force of gravity is approximately 9.8 on the surface of the earth. For simplicity it is assumed that it is 9.8 anywhere on the surface of the earth even though it is known to vary.
For situations near surface of the Earth: Ug = mgΔy where m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and Δy is the change in distance. For general situations involving a two-body system, Ug = Gm1m2/r where G is the universal gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the mass of the two objects in question, and r is the distance between the objects.
You could integrate the force f= GmM/r^2, E= integral fdr = - GmM/r + constant.
Another derivation is to recognize the essential variable in Nature the Energy-moment. The energy-moment = GmM for masses and zcqQ for charges. Potential Energy is the slope of the energy-moment.
EP = -mGM/r
Does speed 'effect' the gravitational potential energy of an object? No, but gravitational potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy - so the gravitational potential energy can effect the speed. Ep = mgh Energy Potential = mass * 9.81 (gravity) * height Speed / Velocity is absent from that equation.
Potential energy = mass x gravitational acceleration x height
The equation to calculate an object's gravitation potential energy is: PE=MGH where: PE is gravitational potential energy M is the objects mass G is the acceleration due to the gravitational pull of the Earth on its surface ( 9.8 m/s2) H is the height from the location that would give it zero potentional energy (generally the ground)
Gravitational potential energy = Mass x gravity x heightTherefore, an object at ground level is 0 meters above the ground, thus having no potential energy.PE = mghm = massg = gravitational accelerationh = height
Gravitational energy Potential energy
Gravitational energy is the potential energyassociated with the gravitational field.
Gravitational-potential energy.
Potential energy and gravitational potential energy are different from each other ."Potential energy is the ability of a body to do work." Anddue_to_its_height.%22">"Gravitational potential energy is the ability of a body to do work due to its height."Gravitational potential energy is a type of potential energy.
It is a type of potential energy, but there are other types of potential energy, too.
An object gets gravitational potential energy by
Gravitational + Potential = 100 If you have 67 J of potential energy your gravitational energy would be 33 J.
