Well it depends on what kind of potential energy we are talking about. Potential energy is not just due to your height(more specifically your position in a gravitational field) but also there is electro magnetic potential energy (which is the energy due to your position in an electromagnetic field). So, you could say that potential energy is due to your position in any kind of field whether it be gravitational, electromagnetic, ....etcAn object that has potential energy may have this energy because of its what?
Yes it is it's height/position. If it is say up in the air, it has potential energy because it could fall down, etc.An object that has potential energy may have this energy because of its what?
height
potential energy is energy due to position
Because of it's position and configuration.
There you go, I'm glad I could help. :)
