Potential Energy

Calculate position energy.

kg
m

Explanation

Gravitational potential energy depends on height. **PE = m g h**. - g = 9.81 m/s² (on Earth).

Examples

  • A 10 kg weight lifted 2 meters has 10 x 9.81 x 2 = 196 Joules.

FAQ

On the Moon?

Gravity g is lower (1.6 m/s²), so PE is lower.
