One
of
the most important energy
forms of a Yo-Yo is its
Potential Energy. This is
given by U = mgh. M is the
mass of the Yo-Yo, g is the
acceleration due to gravity
(9.8 m/s^2), and h which is
the height that the Yo-Yo
travels downward. The height
is limited by the strings
length. Before the Yo-Yo is
released, the string in
wrapped around the axle of
the Yo-Yo.
