To find the height using gravitational potential energy (GPE) and mass, you can use the formula for GPE: ( \text{GPE} = mgh ), where ( m ) is the mass, ( g ) is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately ( 9.81 , \text{m/s}^2 ) on Earth), and ( h ) is the height. Rearranging the formula to solve for height gives you ( h = \frac{\text{GPE}}{mg} ). By substituting the values of GPE and mass into this equation, you can calculate the height.

How do you find the mass of an object if you have its height and gravitational potential energy?
GPE = Mass * Height so Mass = GPE/Height
What are 2 equations for GPE?
Weight*Height Mass*9.8*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
Is the gravitational potential energy of the object dependent to the mass?
Yes. GPE = mgh (mass x gravity x height).
What would the gravitational potential energy be if the bucket of water were raised twice as high?
GPE = mass * acceleration of gravity * height. Original GPE : m*g*h Joules if you double the height, you get m*g*2h Joules, or 2*m*g*h -- twice the GPE.
