Answer 2

Answer:

• Potential energy is the energy stored within an object, due to the object's position, arrangement or state.

1) potential energy is also used by counterweights.

2) rock sitting on the edge of a cliff. If the rock falls, the potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy, as the rock will be moving.

3) A stretched elastic string in a longbow. When the elastic string is released, it will cause the arrow to shoot forward.

4) A sparkler. The chemical potential energy in a sparkler will be released when the top of the stick is lit.

5) The food we eat. Food contains chemical potential energy – as our bodies digest it, the stored energy is converted into energy for us to move and grow.
