Imagine a plate sitting on a table. Becasue it isn't moving, the plate has potential energy. It has energy overall because it has mass, is in an environment with gravity, and is above the ground. These three factors multiplied will give you your potential energy.

A plate is moving at 5mm in 100 days what is the speed in mm day?
