Question

wht is potential energy?

Answer 1

To summarize, potential energy is the energy that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position. An object possesses gravitational potential energy if it is positioned at a height above (or below) the zero height.

Answer 2

Hello

Potential energy - potential energy is the energy held by an object because of its position relative to other objects, stresses within itself, its electric charge, or other factors.

P.E= mgh, where m is the mass in kilograms, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m / s2at the surface of the earth) and h is the height in meters
