Any object that is above the chosen reference level has gravitational potential energy. If your chosen reference level is the ground level, a book on the table, or you yourself if you are standing rather than lying on the floor, have potential energy.

What is an example of gravitational potential?
An apple hanging from a tree has gravitational potential energy...anything which could fall to the ground has gravitational potential energy
Is gravitational energy an example of kinetic energy?
No. Gravitational energy is a type of potential energy.
What is an example of gravitational energy transforming to mechanical energy?
Gravitational potential energy IS mechanical energy. Mechanical energy includes both kinetic energy, and potential energy.When an object falls, gravitational potential energy will be converted to KINETIC energy.
When does an object have gravitational potential energy?
Well gravitational potential energy is potential energy that depends on the height of an object so an object would have gravitational potential energy when ever it's of the ground or at a high height (it doesn't have to be very high) for example if you lift up a ball it has the potential to fall or if your climbing a mountain you have gravitational potential energy.
The energy of position is what kind of energy?
That is called potential energy. For example, in the case of gravitational potential energy: If an object is raised, its potential energy increases.

What is an example of gravitational potential energy tranforming in kinetic energy?
A falling stone.
The energy of position such as a rock on a hill is what energy?
Gravitational energy Potential energy
Is gravitational energy kinetic?
Gravitational energy is the potential energyassociated with the gravitational field.
Why is potential energy called gravitational potential energy?
Potential energy and gravitational potential energy are different from each other ."Potential energy is the ability of a body to do work." Anddue_to_its_height.%22">"Gravitational potential energy is the ability of a body to do work due to its height."Gravitational potential energy is a type of potential energy.
What does potential energy plus gravitational energy equals?
Gravitational-potential energy.
How does the sum of Kinetic and gravitational Potential energy change?
The answer depends on the situation. For example, the sum of the kinetic and gravitational potential energy of an aircraft which is taking off will increase.
How is a ball on a hill gravitational energy?
the object has a potential energy relative to , for example, the bottom of the hill, or the bottom of the slide.
