Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position relative to other objects.
Here are some examples of potential energy in everyday life:
- #1 Energy stored in a compressed spring is the potential energy
- #2 Energy stored in a stretched rubber of an inflated balloon is the potential energy
- #3 Energy stored in a rock sitting at the edge of a cliff is the potential energy
- #4 Energy stored in a stretched string of a bow is the potential energy
- #5 Energy stored in a fruit hanging on a tree branch is the potential energy
- #6 Energy stored in a wrecking ball is the potential energy
- #7 Energy stored in a snow resting on a snow capped mountain is the potential energy
- #8 Energy stored in a wagon of a roller coaster is the potential energy
- #9 Energy stored in a water of dams and reservoirs is the potential energy
- #10 Energy stored in a pendulum bob is the potential energy
- #11 Energy stored in a bullet before it comes out from pistol is the potential energy
- #12 Energy stored in a stretched elastic band is the potential energy
- #13 Energy stored in a stretched spring of a pinball machine is the potential energy
- #14 Energy stored in a TV hanging on the wall is the potential energy
- #15 Energy stored in a stretched bungee cord is the potential energy
- #16 Energy stored in a lantern hanging on the rope is the potential energy
- #17 Energy stored in a wheels of a skateboard before skating is the potential energy
