Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. When we lift certain thing to a certain height we have to done some work on it . This energy is stored in the form of potential energy.

Potential energy = mass * acceleration due to gravity * Height of object from ground.

As height increases PE increases.

What is the Formula for height when potential energy and mass are given?

The formula to calculate the height using potential energy (PE) and mass (m) is: PE = mgh, where h represents the height. To solve for height, rearrange the formula to be: h = PE / (mg), where h is the height, PE is the potential energy, m is the mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.81 m/s^2).


Will a ball bounce higher if it is thrown to the ground at different heights using the same force?

No. The greater the height, the greater the potential energy. PE = m•g•h, where m is mass in kg, g is 9.8m/s2, and h is height in meters.


What are he factor that affect potential energy?

This can be deduced quite simply from the formula for potential energy: PE = mgh (potential energy = mass x gravity x height)


What is the mathematical relationship that explains potential energy?

For example, for gravitational potential energy, the relationship is: PE = weight x height Or the equivalent: PE = mass x gravity x height


What is the equation for PE?

There is no special formula for that: if you convert KE to PE, every joule of KE becomes one joule of PE. For practical calculations, you often have to use the KE and PE formulae separately.


How does height affect the period of a pendulum?

Height does not affect the period of a pendulum.


How do the mass and height of an object affect the gravatational potential energy?

The gravitational potential energy of an object increases with both its mass and height. The formula for gravitational potential energy is PE = mgh, where m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the object above the reference point. As the mass or height increases, so does the gravitational potential energy.

What is the height of a mare?

The sex of a horse does not affect the height so much as genetics and breed affect the height of a horse. Mares can be any height.


How do you find for height in potential energy?

PE = mgh h = PE/mg ======== You would nee the potential energy figure in Joules, the mass in kilograms of the object and the constant, which is the acceleration of gravity. Then the above algebraic manipulation would find height for you.


What does the letters stand for in this formula PE equals mgh?

PE=MGH means the potential energy equals to the mass times the gravity times the height


How do you find gravity when given Potential energy and Mass and Height?

PE=m x g x h, so g = PE / (m x h)
