At its aphelion
The aphelion is the point in the orbit of a planet or comet that is at the greatest distance from the sun.
A car would have the most potential energy when it is at its highest point or at the top of a hill. This is because potential energy is height-dependent, and the higher an object is above the ground, the greater its potential energy due to gravity.

The coma of a comet is formed due to melting of the comet's nucleus by the Sun's energy. This creates a cloud of gas and dust that surrounds the nucleus and forms the visible atmosphere of the comet.
The car that is highest has the most potential energy.
The particles of energy in a comet mainly come from the solar wind interacting with the comet's nucleus and surrounding coma. The solar wind is a stream of charged particles emitted by the Sun that affects the comet's ion tail and can cause energy release through processes like ionization and excitation.
A comet has the greatest potential energy at its farthest point from the Sun, known as aphelion. At this location, the gravitational pull of the Sun is weaker, and the comet is at its maximum distance from the Sun. As the comet moves closer to the Sun in its elliptical orbit, its potential energy decreases while its kinetic energy increases due to the gravitational attraction.
Kinetic energy - the energy of a mass in motion CAN be greater than the potential energy of the mass.The kinetic energy of a comet hitting the Earth would be far greater than the potential energy of the comet once it entered Earth gravity field.
No, not everything has potential energy. Potential energy is the energy that an object has due to its position or state, such as gravitational potential energy or elastic potential energy. Objects that are stationary or at rest may not have potential energy.
A person going down a hill will have the most potential energy at the top of the hill, where the gravitational potential energy is highest due to the greater height. As the person descends the hill, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
A car would have the most potential energy when it is at its highest point or at the top of a hill. This is because potential energy is height-dependent, and the higher an object is above the ground, the greater its potential energy due to gravity.

The potential energy of a swing is greatest at the highest point of its arc. This is where the swing has the most distance from the ground and the most potential to do work if released.
Potential energy is the amount of energy stored in an object due to its height. This is maximum for an object which has maximum height and vice versa. So the most potential energy would be for object with greatest height.
gravitational energy
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.
