1. Potential Energy - The Physics Classroom
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 is one of several types of energy that an object can possess. While there are several sub-types of potential energy, we will focus on gravitational potential energy. Gravitational potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its location within some gravitational field, most commonly the gravitational field of the Earth.
2. Forms of energy - U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)
Gravitational energy is energy stored in an object's height. The higher and heavier the object, the more gravitational energy is stored.
An introduction to forms of energy: kinetic energy, potential energy, and chemical energy.
3. 9.2 Mechanical Energy and Conservation of Energy - Physics
Missing: __________
We saw earlier that mechanical energy can be either potential or kinetic. In this section we will see how energy is transformed from one of these forms ...

5. Section B: Two Main Forms of Energy | UWSP - UW-Stevens Point
Potential energy is stored or released when the arrangement of the objects and/or the forces they exert on each other changes in some way. Systems of objects ...
Unit 1: What is Energy? Section B. Two Main Forms of Energy The energy we sense all around us seems to have many forms. Fires burn, rubber bands snap back,...
6. Potential and Kinetic Energy Explained | Education Overview
Missing: __________
Energy is a fascinating concept. We discuss two energy forms, potential & kinetic energy, in greater detail and explore the relationship between them.
7. Gravitational Energy - Knowledge Bank - Solar Schools
Missing: __________ sentence?
8. Energy Transfers and Transformations - National Geographic Education
Missing: __________
Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be transferred and transformed. There are a number of different ways energy can be changed, such as when potential energy becomes kinetic energy or when one object moves another object.
