Answer:
B = mass, height
Gravitational potential energy is a function of the mass ans the height of an object.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for gravitational potential energy is
GPE = mgh
m = mass in kilogram
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height in meter above the ground
Formula:
GP.E = mgh
Consider the following example:
A crane lifts a 75kg mass a height of 8 m. Calculate the gravitational potential energy gained by the mass:
Formula:
GP.E = mgh
Now we will put the values in formula.
g = 9.8 m/s²
GP.E = 75 Kg × 9.8 m/s²× 8 m
GP.E = 5880 Kg.m²/s²
Kg.m²/s² = j
GP.E = 5880 j
