Achemist wants to measure certain properties about various formulations she has put together. her out by explaining for each case (a-c) what type of geometry to use and what type of experiment(s) to perform so she can calculate the desired property. if desired, you may sketch example experimental results to aid in your explanations

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.
