What does gravitational potential energy depend on?
Think about what happens when you lift something.
What is the formula for gravitational potential energy?
What do the letters m, g, and h stand for?
What is the formula for gravitational potential energy?
Think of the factors involved in height.
True or False: The gravitational potential energy increases when an object is raised.
Consider what happens when you lift something.
Calculate the potential energy of a 12 kg object on a platform 15 meters high. Then, what would its potential energy be if it were lifted to 30 meters?
Use the PE formula for both heights.
If an object loses 500 Joules of gravitational potential energy when falling, calculate how high it was initially if its mass was 10 kg.
Rearrange the PE formula to solve for height.
