The type of energy that is created when a crane at a building site lifts a beam to its top height is to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

Potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position or height. It is also known as stored energy. It is given by the expression,

P.E=mgh

Where,

m is the mass of the body

h is the height.

g is the gravity.
