Hello,
Here's the answer :-
Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body due to the virtue of its position and configuration.
It is of two types :-
1)Gravitational potential energy :-
It is the energy possessed by a body due to its position.
Formula :- mgh, where:-
m = mass of body
g= acceleration due to gravity at a given place
h = height of the body above the ground.
2)Elastic potential energy :-
It is the energy possessed by a body due to its shape or configuration.
Hope it helped :-)
