Results

U = mgh.
196.2J

At a glance:U = m·g·h (near Earth's surface). Complements gravitational-pe and elastic-potential-energy.

Formula

U = m·g·h.

$$U = mgh$$

How to Use

  1. Enter mass and height.
  2. The tool returns the energy.

Case Studies

m=10, h=5, g=9.8

U = 490 J.

FAQ

Reference height?

Choose h=0 where PE is defined; only differences matter.
