For gravitational potential energy, just use PE = mgh. So find the mass, the height above ground, and remember g is 9.8 m/s². You're golden!

Potential energy? Simple! Use the formula PE = mgh. Just multiply the mass (m) by gravitational acceleration (g, about 9.8 m/s²) and the height (h).

You serious about this? mgh. That’s it. Mass times gravity times height.

As a physics nerd, I can confirm: PE = mgh is your go-to formula. We use it all the time!
