Question

The energy due to the height of an object is

  1. Gravitational potential energy
  2. Thermal energy
  3. Kinetic energy
  4. Motion energy

hintHint:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy that is formed due to the height of an object.

The correct answer is: Gravitational potential energy


    • The energy caused by the height of an object is gravitational potential energy.
    • It is defined as the energy acquired by an object when its position changes and is above the gravitational field.
    • The gravitational potential energy can be defined as GPE= mgh.

    A roller coaster is at the top of a 72 m hill and weighs 966 N. What is its gravitational potential energy?

    The energy that an object has or acquires when its position changes due to being in a gravitational field are known as gravitational potential energy. Gravitational potential energy can be defined as energy that has a connection to gravitational force or gravity.
    Gravitational potential is the effort required to move a unit test mass from infinity into the source mass's gravitational field. Both are held above the table, with one at the table. We can now state that the pencil that is higher than the table will have more gravitational potential energy.
    ¶The formula for Gravitational Potential Energy
    ⇒ GPE = m⋅g⋅h
    where
    m represents the mass in kilograms.
    Gravitational acceleration, or g (9.8 on Earth)
    The measurement of h above the ground is in meters.
