Q: At what point in a gravitational field is the gravitational potential constant?
Solution:
The gravitational potential is constant along an equipotential surface.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what gravitational potential means. It is the potential energy per unit mass at a point in a gravitational field.
Step 2: Learn about gravitational fields. They are areas around a mass where other masses experience a force due to gravity.
Step 3: Know what an equipotential surface is. It is a surface where the gravitational potential is the same at every point.
Step 4: Realize that if you are on an equipotential surface, the gravitational potential does not change, meaning it is constant.
Step 5: Conclude that the gravitational potential is constant along these equipotential surfaces.
