Question

give one example each for potential energy 1] due to its position 2] due to its shape​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: Potential energy due to position: Water stored in dam has potential energy. Potential energy due to shape: In a toy car, the wound spring possesses potential energy, and as the spring is released, its potential energy changes into kinetic energy due to which the car moves

Explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation:

(a) P.E. due to its position at a height :

Water at a height has P.E. stored in it. Falling water from a height can be used to do work like turning a wheel,

(b) P.E. Due to its elongated stretched state :  

A stretched rubber band (elongated state) has potential energy. it does work in restoring itself to its original state. A pebble placed on the stretched rubber catapult , is thrown away when it is released to restore its originals state
