Potential energy is the energy stored in an object because of its position or state. Think of it as nature's way of saving energy for a rainy day!

It's just the energy stored in something because of its position. Lift a rock, and you've given it potential energy.

Potential energy is the stored energy in an object due to its position. So, when you lift a book up, that book has potential energy.

Potential energy is the lazy sibling of kinetic energy, just hanging out until it gets moved or changed.

Potential energy is energy that's stored up, like a cat about to pounce or a rollercoaster at the top of a hill.
