Two cars started at the same position and were driven through a city using different streets. the red car traveled north 2 miles, then east 4 miles, and then south 6 miles. the green car traveled south 4 miles and then east 4 miles. both cars ended at the same location.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
