Detailed explanation-1: -Gravitational potential energy is the energy stored in an. object as the result of its vertical position or height.

Detailed explanation-2: -Potential energy is stored energy and the energy of position. Chemical energy is energy stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules.

Detailed explanation-3: -potential energy, stored energy that depends upon the relative position of various parts of a system. A spring has more potential energy when it is compressed or stretched. A steel ball has more potential energy raised above the ground than it has after falling to Earth.

Detailed explanation-4: -Potential energy is the stored energy in any object or system by virtue of its position or arrangement of parts. However, it isn’t affected by the environment outside of the object or system, such as air or height. On the other hand, kinetic energy is the energy of an object or a system’s particles in motion.
