Gravitational Potential Energy.
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.
The potential energy of a spring is defined by this equation: U=.5kx2 U= potential energy (in joules) k= the spring constant x= the displacement of the spring from equilibrium. (the amount that the spring is stretched or compressed) This equation tells us that as a spring is compressed by a distance x, the potential energy increases proportionately to x2
