In general, potential energy refers to stored energy. That is, potential energy is energy that is stored and can be changed into other forms of energy as the potential energy is released. Gravitational potential energy is energy that is stored by a system and it comes from an object's height above the ground. Normally gravitational potential energy is changed into kinetic energy. That is, as an object falls toward the ground, the gravitational potential energy is changed into kinetic energy. It is easy to see that the amount of gravitational potential energy increases as the height h above the ground increases. Indeed, there is a directly proportional relationship between the height h and the gravitational potential energy. The equation for gravitational potential energy is: GPE = mgh, where m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.80 m/s^2), and h is the height above the ground.

Answer from: destanie1030

Taking into account the definition of potential energy, the relationship between an object’s height above the ground and its gravitational potential energy is Ep = m×g×h.

Potential energy is the energy that measures the ability of a system to do work based on its position. In other words, this is the energy that a body has at a certain height above the ground.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy associated with the gravitational force. This will depend on the relative height of an object to some reference point, the mass, and the force of gravity.

Then for an object with mass m, at height h, the expression applied to the gravitational energy of the object is:

Ep = m×g×h

Where Ep is the potential energy in joules (J), m is the mass in kilograms (kg) is h the height in meters (m) and g is the acceleration of fall in m/s² (approximately 9.81 m/s²).

In summary, the relationship between an object’s height above the ground and its gravitational potential energy is Ep = m×g×h.

This is what i found on google “when one phosphate group is removed by breaking a phosphoanhydride bond in a process called hydrolysis, energy is released, and atp is converted to adenosine diphosphate (adp). likewise, energy is also released when a phosphate is removed from adp to form adenosine monophosphate (amp).” i hope this you .
