Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object, and can be changed into kinetic, or other forms of energy. There are many types, such as Elastic Potential Energy and Gravitational Potential Energy.
Because it is. Gravitational potential energy is energy stored in the gravitational field, electrical potential energy is energy stored in the electric field, magnetic potential energy is stored in the magnetic field, etc.
the term potential energy refers to the energy stored in an object.
Stored energy is usually potential energy, but it can be kinetic, such as a spinning flywheel. The energy of position is usually gravitational potential energy.
I think that the type of energy stored in a parachute is perceptional but also gravitational.

It is different because gravitational potential energy is when something is getting pulled by gravity and potential energy is stored energy which means that it is not moving and the energy is not getting released as gravitational energy is.

"Gravitational potential" or just "potential" energy.
Stored energy
Gravitational potential energy
Gravitational potential energy, is the energy an object possesses by reason of its position in a gravitational field. While elastic potential energy, is the energy stored by a material or object as a result of deformation e.g. the energy stored in a bow when it is stretched.
Gravitational potential energy
Energy stored in a spring; gravitational potential energy; chemical energy; nuclear energy.
