Potential energy is work done against a conservative force, such as gravity. You might say it is stored in the force field or force fields. It is often convenient to think of an object (a raised stone, for example) as "having" a certain amount of potential energy, but it is probably more accurate do consider the energy as being in the RELATIONSHIP between the two objects. If the rock and planet Earth are farther apart, there is more potential energy; if they are nearer, there is less potential energy. Just by observing the rock or Earth, you won't notice any energy (like heat, or movement); you have to observe the RELATIONSHIP between the two to conclude that there is potential energy.

What object is energy stored in to cause change?
potential energy

When a coconut falls when does it have gravitational potential energy?
An object has potential engergy when it is any height above the ground. The object does not have to be moving to have engergy. This is like a stored energy. It takes energy to move or raise an object to a height level. This object now has stored that energy.
