Gravitational potential energy can be calculated using the formula:
Where:
PEgrav = Gravitational potential energy
m= mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height
On Earth acceleration due to gravity is a constant 9.8 but since the scenario is on Mars, the pull of gravity is different. In this case, it is 3.7, so we will use that for g.
So put in what you know and solve for what you don't know.
m = 10kg
g = 3.7m/s^2
h = 1m
So we put that in and solve it.
