The values of PE, or potential energy, depend on the system and context being considered. In a gravitational field, potential energy is calculated using the formula PE = mgh, where m is mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height above a reference point. In other contexts, such as elastic potential energy in springs, the formula is PE = (1/2)kx², where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement from the equilibrium position. Overall, potential energy represents the stored energy of an object due to its position or configuration.
