the formula (1/2)m * v squared. Gravitational potential energy - Energy that an object has by virtue of its position in a gravitational field; an object has more gravitational potential energy when it has a greater distance that it can potentially fall. Power – The rate of energy usage‚ usually measured in watts (1 watt = 1 joule/s). Wavelength - The distance between adjacent peaks (or troughs) of a wave. Frequency – The rate at which peaks of a wace pass by a point‚ measured in units of 1/s
