The formula for calculating potential energy (PE) in the absence of air resistance is:
PE = mgh
Where: PE = potential energy m = mass of the object g = acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.81 m/s^2 on Earth) h = height of the object above a reference point

PE = mgh where:
PE is potential energy in joules (J) m is mass in kilograms (kg) g is acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²) h is height in meters (m)
