Explanation:

Short notes on Gravitational Potential Energy :

  • Gravitational potential energy is the energy possessed or acquired by an object due to a change in its position when it is present in a gravitational field.

  • The equation for gravitational potential energy is = m * g * h.

  • Since the gravitational potential energy of an object is directly proportional to its height above the zero position, a doubling of the height will result in a doubling of the gravitational potential energy.

  • Ex : A pendulum bob swinging to and from above the tabletop has a potential energy that can be measured based on its height above the tabletop. By measuring the mass of the bob and the height of the bob above the tabletop, the potential energy of the bob can be determined.

Hope this information helps!
