"h" from the Earth surface ?

A.) B.) mgh C.) 1/
m
^2

D.) ma​

Answer 1

Explanation:

• By the end of this section, you will be able to: Explain gravitational potential energy in terms of work done against gravity. Show that the gravitational potential energy of an object of mass m at height h on Earth is given by PEg = mgh.
