If an object is above ground level, it has positive gravitational potential energy. (This assumes you define ground level to be zero - actually, you can define any level to be zero.)
"Gravitational potential" or just "potential" energy.
I would have described them as different types of energy, so don't see what the relationship could be. If you hit a ball high in the air, it will have elastic energy stored in it from the initial blow, and it will also gain gravitational energy as it rises. The gravitational energy arises because the ball was given kinetic energy when it was hit, the elastic energy because it was deformed, but I don't think they then interact. IF THIS IS FOR STUDYISLAND THE ANSWER IS A COMPRESSED SPRING
Just calculate the potential energy in both cases, then subtract! The formula for gravitational potential energy is PE = mgh (mass x gravity x height). In SI units, gravity is approximately 9.8.
Um, using a cup and spoon works pretty well.
1) at the top of the swing, the swinging object has all potential energy and no kinetic energy (no speed at that moment) while at the bottom there is no potential energy but a maximum in kinetic energy, so that the swinging object is fastest at the bottom.
If an object - in this case the high diver - is above the reference level, then its gravitational potential energy will be positive.Note that the reference level is arbitrary, but quite often, the ground level is chosen for calculations of gravitational potential energy.

"Gravitational potential" or just "potential" energy.
Well gravitational potential energy is potential energy that depends on the height of an object so an object would have gravitational potential energy when ever it's of the ground or at a high height (it doesn't have to be very high) for example if you lift up a ball it has the potential to fall or if your climbing a mountain you have gravitational potential energy.
The potential energy of the diver can be calculated using the formula: PE = mgh, where m is the mass of the diver (150 kg), g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2), and h is the height of the diving board (10 m). Therefore, the potential energy of the diver is PE = 150 kg * 9.81 m/s^2 * 10 m = 14,715 J.

Gravitational potential energy itself is not dangerous. However, if a system with high gravitational potential energy, such as a large boulder on a hill, were to suddenly release that energy (by rolling down the hill, for example), it could be dangerous to anything in its path.
The diver's potential energy at the top of the platform can be calculated using the formula: Potential Energy = mass x gravity x height. In this case, it will be: PE = 70 kg x 9.81 m/s^2 x 3.0 m = 2053.1 J. At the top of the diving platform, the diver's potential energy is at its maximum and his kinetic energy is zero.
Potential energy, specifically gravitational potential energy, since the book has the potential to fall due to gravity when it is on the high shelf.
An object at a high altitude has the most gravitational potential energy, as potential energy is directly related to an object's height above a reference point. The higher an object is lifted against gravity, the more potential energy it has.
A tall object, such as a heavy object on a high shelf, has gravitational potential energy that could be dangerous if it were to fall. If the object were to fall, it could cause serious injury to anyone in its path due to the transfer of its gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy.
Gravitational potential energy is a type of energy that an object possesses because of where it is placed in a gravitational field. The higher the object the more energy it has, so if you had an object that was on the ground and then you put it on a high shelf then it would have more energy when it is on the shelf.
