What is the work done by Gravity?

Answers (1)

best_answer

Gravity work done means the energy transferred when an object moves under the effect of the gravitational pull.  It depends on the object's displacement, the force of gravity, and the direction of movement. The work done by gravity is conservative.

Work Done formula, $$
WD= F.d. cos \theta
$$

Here, 

  • F = Force = weight of the object (mass × g)
  • d = Displacement = how far the object moves
  • Theta = angle between the force of gravity and the direction of movement
