What formula do you use to determine the Gravitational potential energy of an object?
Gravitational potential energy = (weight of the object) x (height) or Potential energy = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) x (height)
What is the gravitational potential energy of an object is equal to its weight multiplied by its?
The gravitational potential energy is equal to: GPE = mass x gravity x height Or equivalently: GPE = weight x height
What two measurements do you multiply together to get gravitational potential energy?
Weight and height.
What is gravitational potential energy dependent upon?
E= -GmM/r is the gravitational potential energy. It depends on the product of the masses and the separation r and of course the gravitational constant G.. ---- or in simpler terms weight and height
The formula Weight x Height is used to calculate what kind of energy?
Relative gravitational potential energy.
If you multiply an objects weight by its height what value do it compute?
gravitational potential energy!!!!!!
What is potential energy dependent upon an object's weight and height?
That is called gravitational potential energy. Sometimes simply "potential energy", and the "gravitational" part is implied.
What is potential energy dependent an object's weight and distance from earth's surface?
Gravitational potential energy.
How is the height of an object related to its potential energy?
The formula for potential energy is: G.P.E. (gravitational potential energy) = Weight x Height
Gravitational potential energy depends on weight and height?
true
What is potential energy dependent upon an objects weight and distance from earths surface?
Gravitational potential energy.
What formula do you use to determine the Gravitational potential energy of an object?
Gravitational potential energy = (weight of the object) x (height) or Potential energy = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) x (height)
What is the gravitational potential energy of an object is equal to its weight multiplied by its?
The gravitational potential energy is equal to: GPE = mass x gravity x height Or equivalently: GPE = weight x height
What two factors determine potential gravitational energy?
Weight and height
What is the type of potential energy dependent upon an object's weight and distance from earths surface?
That is called gravitational potential energy.
The type of potential energy dependent upon an object's weight and distance from Earth's surface?
gravitational potential energy
Potential energy related to an objects height?
Yes, it is based on both. Potential energy (gravitational potential energy, to be more precise) is simply the weight multiplied by the height.
