Question

Define the term gravitational potential and also write its si unit

Answer 1

Gravitational Potential:The gravitational potential is the gravitational potential energy (U) per unit mass: where m is the mass of the object. Potential energy is equal (in magnitude, but negative) to the work done by the gravitational field moving a body to its given position in space from infinity.
SI unit:Jkg^-1 joule per kilogram
