Define gravitation potential at a point

1.	Define gravitation potential at a point
Answer» Thanks<br>Gravitational Potential Energy\tPotential energy is due to the virtue of position of the object.\tGravitational Potential Energy is due to the potential energy of a body arising out of the force of gravity.\tConsider a particle which is at a point P above the surface of earth and when it falls on the surface of earth at position Q, the particle is changing its position because of force of gravity.\tThe change in potential energy from position P to Q is same as the work done by the gravity.\tIt depends on the height above the ground and mass of the body.
