Potential energy is the energy an object has because of its?

Answer 1

Because of it's ability to seperate positive charge from negative charge. The potential energy may have been produce by the device as in a battery or solar cell, or it may have been "injected" into it as in a capacitor but irreguardless, the better the device's ability to keep the negatively charged electrons seperated from the positively charged spaces, The more potential energy it can hold.

So the answer would simply be seperation of charge.

Answer 2

Real number. It is time to have a more comprehensive understanding of energy. Energy has two parts, real and vector energy. E=[r,V]. The real part can be called potential energy in that potential energy is a real number. Vector energy is not a real number it is a vector. Proper vectors differ from reals in that their square is negative.

Answer 3

Existence, mass, and state of motion relative to it's immediate local background.

Answer 4

An objects Potential Energy is because of its position.

Answer 5

PE = mgh (potential energy is the product of mass, gravity, and height).

Answer 6

height above the earth.

Answer 7

location or position

Answer 8

Motion

Answer 9

Position
