Gravitational energy basically refers to gravitational potential energy. The formula is:
GPE = mgh (i.e., mass x gravity x height)
In other words at a higher position, an object has more gravitational potential energy. Please note that once an object is dropped, it no longer has such gravitational potential energy. The potential energy is converted to kinetic (movement) energy; which of course will be greater if the initial potential energy was greater.
When the CG of an object is raised, gravitational potential energy increases due to a higher positioning from the ground, and therefore a higher "potential" to fall.
Tile since loss of energy due to collision will be less compared to that on carpet.
Potential energy is pretty much the potential for kinetic energy. The less kinetic energy there is, the more potential... On the other hand, if you need gravitational potential energy, then the higher the object is placed above the ground, the more GPE it has.
the pendulums gravitational energy refers to the gravitational energy of the bob (the string is considered to be mass less) the energy calculated for practical purposes is considering the mean position of the pendulum as the state of zero energy. but aesthetically the gravitational (potential) energy of a body only depends on its distance from the centre of the earth. the energy is equal to (gravitational constant(G))*(mass of earth)*(mass of bob) /(distance of bob from earths centre)
There is less gravity on the Moon. Gravitational potential energy can be calculated by multiplying weight x height, or the equivalent mass x gravity x height.

Gravitational pull is less for Mercury, Venus, Mars and Uranus. And th eother planets have higher gravitational pull.

The gravitational potential energy would be less for the same height above the surface. This is because the gravitational constant on the moon is less than that of the Earth. Potential energy is defined as mgh, where m is the mass, g is the gravitational constant, and h is the height.

yes height effects potentail energy because if you have a meter stick and a ramp at 50 centemeters with a block at the bottom then roll a ball down the ramp the block at the bottom will go pretty long but if you put the ramp higher the block will go longer
If an object loses mass, it will -- weigh less that it did before, in any given gravitational field -- have less momentum and less kinetic energy at any given speed -- have less gravitational potential energy at any given height -- require less work to lift it to any given height -- respond to any given force with more acceleration than it responded with before -- hurt less when dropped on your foot than it did before -- If its volume doesn't change, then it will have lower density than before. -- If its volume doesn't change, then it will experience greater buoyant force in liquid. If it didn't float before, it may float now. If it did float before, it will float higher now.
Yes they make you lighter which puts less gravitational pull on yourself allowing you to jump higher
that has to do with potential energy. it is for the same reason that an object nearer to the earth has less gravitational potential energy in the case of the atom,the attracting force is the electrostatic force.
