Formula for potential energy
A
U = m*g*y
B
U =
C
U = F*d
D
U = W/t
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Potential energy is particularly useful for forces that change with position, as the gravitational force does over large distances. In Potential Energy and Conservation of Energy, we showed that the change in gravitational potential energy near Earth’s surface is U=mg(y2−y1) U = m g ( y 2 − y 1 ) .

Detailed explanation-2: -Potential energy is defined as the energy stored in an object. Potential energy can be divided into many types; Gravitational potential energy, Elastic Potential energy, Electric Potential Energy etc.

Detailed explanation-3: -The unit of potential energy is joules.
