Meaning
The gravitational potential energy store is the energy stored in an object that is in a gravitional field.
About The Gravitational Potential Energy Store
- The stronger the gravitational field the more energy in the gravitational potential energy store.
- The greater the mass of the object the more energy in the gravitational potential energy store.
- The greater the height of the object the more energy in the gravitational potential energy store.
