prove that gravitation of potential energy is P.E=mgh
Answers
The formula for potential energy depends on the force acting on the two objects. For the gravitational force the formula is P.E. = mgh, where m is the mass in kilograms, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m / s2 at the surface of the earth) and h is the height in

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. In simple terms, it can be said that gravitational potential energy is an energy which is related to gravitational force or to gravity.
The most common example that can help you understand the concept of gravitational potential energy is if you take two pencils. One is placed at the table and the other is held above the table. Now, we can state that the pencil which is high will have greater gravitational potential energy that the pencil that is at the table.
What we can learn here is that the pencil or any object, in particular, will have the potential to do work because of its location in the gravitational field.
The equation for gravitational potential energy is:
⇒ GPE = m⋅g⋅h
Where,
m is the mass in kilograms,
g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 on Earth)
h is the height above the ground in meters
