What is the mathematical expression for gravitational potential energy?
Gravitational potential energy = (object's mass) x (acceleration of gravity) x (object's altitude)
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 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 gravitational potential energy related to?
The distance from the object providing a gravitational force.
Define elastic potential energy and gravitional potential energy?
Gravitational potential energy, is the energy an object possesses by reason of its position in a gravitational field. While elastic potential energy, is the energy stored by a material or object as a result of deformation e.g. the energy stored in a bow when it is stretched.
