Gravitational Potential Energy: You and your friend, who weighs the same as you, want to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower. Your friend takes the elevator straight up. You decide to walk up the spiral stairway, taking longer to do so. Compare the gravitational potential energy of you and your friend, after you both reach the top.

Answer:

Gravitational Potential Energy of both will be equal

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy is given by the following formula:

[tex]P.E = mgh[/tex]

where,

P.E = Gravitational Potential Energy

m = mass of object

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of object

Therefore, the gravitational potential energy of an object depends only upon the height of the object and its mass.

Since, both masses and the heights achieved by both people is equal. Therefore, their gravitational potential energies will also be equal
