The period of a simple pendulum, defined as the time necessary for one complete oscillation, is measured in time units and is given by the following equation, where l is the length of the pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity, in units of length divided by time squared. Show that this equation is dimensionally consistent. T=2π√l/g

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.
