Question

define the gravitational potential energy of a body

Answer 1

hey
your answer.
Gravitational potential energy isenergy an object possesses because of its position in agravitational field. The most common use of gravitational potential energy is for an objectnear the surface of the Earth where the gravitationalacceleration can be assumed to be constant at about 9.8 m/s2.

Answer 2

It is the energy an object has due to its position above the earth,energy due to its height. The equation for gravitational potential energy in GPE=MGH,where m is the mass in kilogramme ,g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height in metres.
