The energy associated with an object due to the object position Relative to a gravitational souce is called gravitational potential energy w=F×a W=mg×h =mgh

Force needed=F=mg
Distance moved d=h
Work done W=force x distance moved
=mgh
PE=mgh(gravitational potential energy)
Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. The most common use of gravitational potential energy is for an object near the surface of the Earth where the gravitational acceleration can be assumed to be constant at about 9.8 m/s2.
