Potential energy is defined as the energy by virtue of its position.
Now Gravitational PE( Potential Energy) increases with increase in height.
So bucket on the first floor will have less potential energy than the bucket on the second floor.

The bucket in the second floor has greater potential energy.the bucket in first floor has lower potential energy as campared to the bucket in second floor.potential energy is directly proportional to height.more the height,more potential energy and lesser the height,Lesser the potential energy.
P.E=M*G*H.
P.E=M*G*H.
