Anything that uses the force of a falling object to do work. For example, water mills, hydroelectric power generators, pile drivers. Even a person jumping (up and) down on earth to flatten it.

The formula Weight x Height is used to calculate what kind of energy?
Relative gravitational potential energy.
What are some advantages of gravitational energy?
An advantage for gravitational energy is that gravitational energy is that it can be made/created very easily and transformed easily as well
Relationship between gravitational and potential energy?
Gravitational + Potential = 100 If you have 67 J of potential energy your gravitational energy would be 33 J.
How is gravitational potential energy different from potential energy?
It is different because gravitational potential energy is when something is getting pulled by gravity and potential energy is stored energy which means that it is not moving and the energy is not getting released as gravitational energy is.
What is the law of gravitational potential energy?
Gravitational energy is the potential energy associated with gravitational force. If an object falls from one point to another point inside a gravitational field, the force of gravity will do positive work on the object, and the gravitational potential energy will decrease by the same amount.
What is the energy used in the solar cell?
gravitational potential energy
The energy of position such as a rock on a hill is what energy?
Gravitational energy Potential energy
Is gravitational energy kinetic?
Gravitational energy is the potential energyassociated with the gravitational field.
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
Is gravitational potential energy is the same gravitational force?
No. Gravitational force is the pull an object experience from gravity. Gravitational energy is the energy an object has from its position in a gravitational field. An object moving up in a gravitational field gains gravitational energy.
How can a gravitational energy converted to gravitational energy?
Gravitational energy already IS gravitational energy; what exactly do you want to convert? With a see-saw, or a similar lever, or a system of ropes, you can transfer gravitational energy from one object to another.
Is gravitational energy an example of kinetic energy?
No. Gravitational energy is a type of potential energy.
What does potential energy plus gravitational energy equals?
Gravitational-potential energy.
What is energy called when it is used with height?
Energy related to height sounds like the description of gravitational potential energy.
What is gravitatonal energy?
That refers to gravitational potential energy - energy related to a gravitational field. If you lift an object up, its gravitational potential energy increases; if it falls back down, its gravitational potential energy decreases.
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
Where is gravitational potential energy found?
gravitational energy is found in your but hole
