Lesson 2 - Kinetic and Potential Energy - Hitchcock
... • An object has gravitational potential energy due to its position above the ground. An object held above the ground has the potential to fall. The higher the object is above the ground, the greater its gravitational potential energy. • Potential energy that depends on an object’s position is referr ...
