Potential Energy Calculator

1. Mass: Weight of the object.
2. Height: Vertical distance from the ground.
3. Gravity: Standard Earth gravity (9.8 m/s²) is default.
4. Calculate: Potential Energy in Joules.

The Potential Energy Calculator measures stored energy, specifically Gravitational Potential Energy. This is the energy an object has because of its height.

The higher you lift a rock, the more potential energy it gains (PE = mgh).
