The gravitational potential energy (PE) of an object at a height (h) above the ground is calculated using the formula: PE = mgh, where m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height above the reference point.

The gravitational potential energy (GPE) of an object is calculated using the formula: GPE = mgh, where m is the object’s mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity (typically 9.8 m/s² on Earth), and h is the object’s height above a reference point.
