A long way down… What is gravitational potential energy? How is GPE calculated? Factors affecting GPE Calculating GPE question 1 Calculating GPE question 2 * of 8 ? Boardworks Ltd 2009 * of 8 ? Boardworks Ltd 2009 How would you describe a bungee jumper? As someone who is: full of gravitational potential energy (GPE). brave insane GPE is the amount of energy an object has because of its position above the ground, i.e. its height. When a bungee jumper starts to fall, he starts to lose GPE. As the elastic cord pulls the bungee jumper back up, he gains GPE. The gravitational potential energy (GPE
