potential energy is stored energy or energy that an object has due to its position
potentiel is the French spelling for potential.
potential means possible, as opposed to actual. ruchita
The reference point for gravitational potential energy is typically chosen to be at infinity, where the gravitational potential energy is defined to be zero. This allows for easy comparison of potential energies between different points in a gravitational field.

A stretched rubber band has potential energy like a spring. It has the potential to snap back. I used to build model airplanes with rubber band motors. I also had a rubber band gun that shot rubber bands. The potential energy stored in the rubber bank is what made these devices work.

Kinetic energy is a form of energy that comes from motion. Therefore any moving object (that has a mass!) has kinetic energy. For kinetic energy to be produced, a force must act upon an object to give it an acceleration, to put it in motion. The simplest case is the conversion of potentiel energy to kinetic energy. When an object is far from its "normal" standing position (in this case the ground), it is said to have potential energy. When this object is attracted by the force of gravity, its potential energy is slowly converting into kinetic energy because the objet keeps on accelerating.
Voltage (V) is the unit of p.d,The voltage itself s the difference in electric potentiel between two different points.It Just means the work done per unit charge can also be expressed as J C-1
No. In a good conductor you simply need less potential difference than in a bad conductor, to get the same current. But if you have zero voltage, you will also have zero current. Unless you have a superconductor (zero resistance), and the current is already flowing.
The concept of pH was first introduced by Danish chemist S L P Sorensen in 1909. pH is claimed to have come from pondus hydrogenii, potentia hydrogeni (Latin) potentiel hydrogene (French) and potential of hydrogen (English). it stand for POTENTIAL HYDROGEN.
I wouldn't try to be cute or to cheer him up. Just let him know you are thinking of him and offer to help him if there is something you can do for him. Don't make the offer if you can't follow through with it. He may just want to know that someone outside the family knows about his loss and pain. Sometimes that's enough.
