Gravitational Potential Energy Equation

$$ U = m g h $$

$U \, $ is gravitational potential energy in joules (J)
$m \, $ is mass in kilograms (kg)
$g \, $ is acceleration due to gravity in metres per second squared (m / s²)
$h \, $ is height in metres (m)

Find:

$ U $
$ m $
$ g $
$ h $

$ U $

= $ m g h$

= $ \mathrm{ kg } $ $ \times $ $ \mathrm{ m/s^2 } $ $ \times $ $ \mathrm{ m } $

= $ \mathrm{ J } $

= $ \mathrm{ J } $ (to significant figures)

$ m $

= $ \displaystyle{\frac{ U }{ g h}} $

= $ \mathrm{ J } $ $ \div $ $ ( $ $ \mathrm{ m/s^2 } $ $ \times $ $ \mathrm{ m } $ $ ) $

= $ \mathrm{ kg } $

= $ \mathrm{ kg } $ (to significant figures)

$ g $

= $ \displaystyle{\frac{ U }{ m h } } $

= $ \mathrm{ J } $ $ \div $ $ ( $ $ \mathrm{ kg } $ $ \times $ $ \mathrm{ m } $ $ ) $

= $ \mathrm{ m/s^2 } $

= $ \mathrm{ m/s^2 } $ (to significant figures)

$ h $

= $ \displaystyle{\frac{ U }{ m g } } $

= $ \mathrm{ J } $ $ \div $ $ ( $ $ \mathrm{ kg } $ $ \times $ $ \mathrm{ m/s^2 } $ $ ) $

= $ \mathrm{ m } $

= $ \mathrm{ m } $ (to significant figures)
