You stay on the earth. Without it you would fly off into space and die because the atmosphere will be too thin to sustain life.

What forms of energy are used when you are bouncing on a trampoline?

there are two types of energy used when on a trampoline and they are kinetic and gravitational


What some forms of energy and how each form can be converted from one form to another using some examples in everyday life?

there are various types of energy that we use in day to day lives. for example chemical energy is used by our body that we obtain from eating food. kinetic energy is used by cars to move and chemical energy is used by the fuel of the car to move forward. in a plane kinetic energy is used to make gravitational potential energy and sound energy. almost every type of energy conversion results in energy loss in the form of sound or heat


What is energy called when it is used with height?

Energy related to height sounds like the description of gravitational potential energy.


What energy is used when a person is falling from a building?

It is kinetic. Someone/something going from its gravitational (not moving) energy to then moving, creates kinetic energy, because it goes from stationary to moving. GRAVITATIONAL ------> KINETIC


What kind of energy is used to make a car go down the street?

The car's gravitational potential energy.


The formula Weight x Height is used to calculate what kind of energy?

Relative gravitational potential energy.


How does thermal energy converted into gravitational potential energy?

One example would be in a hot air balloon. Heat is used to raise the balloon and the higher the balloon gets, the more gravitational potential energy it gets.


What SI unit is used to express gravitational potential energy?

The same as for any other type of energy - the joule.


What type of energy is used before and after a ball is bounced?

Gravitational potential energy before the ball is bounced which changes to kinetic energy and then to elastic potential energy.


What formula is used to calculate gravitational potential energy?

U = m g h Where U is Gravitational Potential Energy (measured in Joules) m is Mass (measured in kilograms) g is Gravitational Acceleration (~9.8 meters/second2) h is height (measured in meters)


What formula is used to find the amount of energy needed to lift a box?

Most of the energy related to lifting something up is related to gravitational potential energy, so you basically use the formula for gravitational potential energy: GPE = mgh (mass x gravity x height)
