Answer:
Potential energy is the energy possessed by the body by virtue of its position or configuration.
Consider a body of mass m at a height 'h' from the ground.
The amount of work done to raise this body to this height h against the force of gravity:
W=F×h where F is the force of gravity .
W=mgh
