Detailed explanation-1: -This stored energy of position is referred to as potential energy. Potential energy is the stored energy of position possessed by an object.
Detailed explanation-2: -In physics, potential energy is the stored energy in an object due to its position relative to some zero position, which is an arbitrarily assigned position like the ground.
Detailed explanation-3: -Weight (mass x gravity) determines the amount of potential energy.
Detailed explanation-4: -Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion.
Detailed explanation-5: -Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object or substance. This stored energy is due to the position, arrangement or state of the object or substance. You can think of it as energy that has the ‘potential’ to do work.
