This video tutorial explains how to calculate gravitational potential energy (GPE) using the formula GPE = MGH, where M is mass, G is gravity (9.8 m/s² on Earth), and H is height. It includes two examples: calculating the GPE of an apple in a tree and a buoy on a slide. The video emphasizes the importance of understanding kinetic and potential energy concepts.
