Energy not in Motion. A good battery has the pontential to light a light bulb. Your house AC outlets have potentional voltage there at the socket to power up your home appliances. A strectched rubber band has stored potential to hurt you if you don't know how to flip it at you target.

potential energy-

take a cattipult for example, when you pull it back it builds up energy (potential), then when you realese it it changes to kinetic energy.

How Is Potentional Energy Produced?

It is produced by converting some other type of energy into potential energy. For example, it takes an effort to lift an object up (against the force of gravitation) or to compress a spring.


Where do you go in need for speed carbon to get cheat codes?

Does an apple have energy and why?

An apple has potential energy when it's just sitting on a table. If you pick it up, then it has gravitational energy as gravity is pulling it down. If you bite it, it releases chemical energy to your body. And if you throw it, it now has kinetic energy. :)


What is the equation for calculating an object's gravitational potential energy?

The equation to calculate an object's gravitation potential energy is: PE=MGH where: PE is gravitational potential energy M is the objects mass G is the acceleration due to the gravitational pull of the Earth on its surface ( 9.8 m/s2) H is the height from the location that would give it zero potentional energy (generally the ground)
