Potential Energy

Potential energy is an object's stored energy because of its position or condition. This type of energy has the potential to do work when the object’s

Gravitational potential energy is an object's stored energy because of its position above the ground. This energy depends on the object’s mass, height

Elastic potential energy is stored in objects that can stretch or compress, such as springs, rubber bands, or trampolines. This energy is stored when

The motion and energy of an object are influenced by its mass, the height from which it falls, and the force of gravity. These three factors are key i

Potential energy is stored energy—energy an object has because of its position, condition, or chemical makeup. It isn't being used yet, but it's ready

Energy exists in different forms, and it can change from one form to another. Two important types of mechanical energy are kinetic energy (energy of m

Elastic potential energy is stored in objects that can be stretched or compressed. In sports, this type of energy plays a key role in performance, whe
