Question

define gravitional potential energy with example​

Answer 1

Explanation:

gggGravitational potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position above the Earth's surface.

This is due to the force of gravity acting on an object.

Ep = m × g × h

Examples:

1. A crane lifts a 75kg mass a height of 8 m. Calculate the gravitational potential energy gained by the mass (g = 9.8 N/kg).

Answer 2

Explanation:

the energy possessed by a body by a virtune of it's position or configuration in gravitional feild.

for e.g. water behind the dam
