Derive the mgh approximation for gravitational potential energy.

Newton's law of gravitation -> GPE = GMm/r - GMm/(r+h)GPE = GMm(1/r - 1/(r+h))GPE = GMm(h)/(r(r+h))r >> h -> GPE ~ (m)(GM/r^2)h = mgh

An object is let in free fall from a platform 20m high above Earth's surface. Describe the event in terms of energy and thus determine the speed of the object when it hits ground. Air resistance is negligible and gravitational acceleration is constant.

When the object is at rest on the platform it has no kinetic energy, but only potential energy. The potential energy is m g h where m is the mass of the object, g the gravitational acceleration and h the hei...
