Class 11 Physics (India): Gravitational potential energy at large distances
Learn how to calculate gravitational potential energy when we can no longer assume the gravitational field is uniform.
Class 11 Physics (India)
Let's learn, practice, and master topics of class 11 physics (NCERT) starting with kinematics and then moving to dynamics with Newton's laws of motion, work, energy, and power. Let's then use these as the foundation to learn about centre of mass, rotational motion, gravitation, solids, fluids, thermodynamics, and oscillations and waves.
Gravitational potential energy
Until this lesson, we have always assumed the gravitational field is uniform and potential energy is equal to mgh. Now we'll learn how to find the gravitational potential energy at large…
