Energy an object has due to position in gravitational field
Eg=mgΔhE_g = mg\Delta hEg=mgΔh
Acceleration due to gravity (m s⁻²)
9.89.89.8 m s⁻²
Close to planetary surface, uniform gravitational field
Large distances, comparable to planet's radius
ΔEg=W\Delta E_g = WΔEg=W
Work done and change in gravitational potential energy
Multiply area under graph by object's mass
More gravitational potential energy stored
