This potential energy is a result of gravity pulling downwards. The gravitational constant, g, is the acceleration of an object due to gravity. This acceleration is about 9.8 meters per second on earth. The formula for potential energy due to gravity is PE = mgh.
Definition: Potential energy, or stored energy, is the ability of a system to do work due to its position or internal structure.

Dear Gowri
This potential energy is a result of gravity pulling downwards. The gravitational constant, g, is the acceleration of an object due to gravity. This acceleration is about 9.8 meters per second on earth. The formula for potential energy due to gravity is PE = mgh.
All the best for your bright future

dear gowri sankar,
potential energy is the energy possesedby a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors.this is called potential energy.

the energy due to its position is called potential energy.
and potential energy are various kinds ,
ex: gravitational potential energy { due to its gravity};electrical,etc.,

dear kancham gowri shankar potential energy is denoted by P.
formula of potential energy is p=mgh where m is the mass/ h is the height

dear gowri sankar,
the energy experienced by its state is called potential energy.i.e.,PE=mgh.here PE is the potential energy and m is mass of the object and g is the gravitational force of the earth(9.8 m/s^2) and h is the height of the object.

my dear
simply say that the potential energy is come from a rested body and it can come from its virtual position.example the rock on the mountain.

The energy possed by a body by virtue of its position is nothing but potential energy.p=mgh.potential energy is depends on height.height is diretly proportional to height.
