Question

diffence between gravitational potential energy and elastic potential energy

Answer 1

Heya,
 The main difference between gravitational potential energy and elastic potential energy is that the origin of gravitational potential energy is the gravitational forces acting between two massive bodies whereas the origin of elastic potential energy is the electrostatic forces between molecules that make up a material

Answer 2

Gravitational potential energy and elastic potential energy are two different forms of energies that a particle can have. The main difference between gravitational potential energy and elastic potential energy is that the origin of gravitational potential energy is the gravitational forces acting between two massive bodies whereas the origin of elastic potential energy is the electrostatic forces between molecules that make up a material.
