The gravitational potential of an object is always measured relative to reference level/another point
Further explanation
Energy is the ability to do work. Energy can change from one energy to another
Gravitational potential energy is the energy that an object has because of its position
The potential energy can be formulated:
Ep = m. g. h
E = potential energy of an object, joule
m = object mass, kg
g = gravity acceleration, m / s2
h = height of an object, m
The higher the object from the surface of the earth and the greater the mass, the greater the potential energy of the object. Earth's gravity also affects the potential energy of objects
Potential energy itself includes mechanical energy
Em = Ek + Ep
Em = mechanical energy
Ek = kinetic energy
Ep = potential energy
The amount of kinetic energy and potential energy of objects is always constant
