The four galilean moons were discovered in the year 1610 but the next moon of jupiter to be discovered amalthea was not found until 1892 the distinction that was most responsible for early discovery of the galilean and moons was theira.) orbital periodsb.) diametersc.) average orbital radii. d.) orbital speeds

1 the 4 is sig

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
