Understanding Potential Energy

The video tutorial explains potential energy as stored energy, often referred to as the energy of position. It provides examples such as a person at the top of a slide, a stretched rubber band, and foods containing chemical energy. The concept of gravitational potential energy is also discussed, with examples like a bridge and an apple above the Earth's surface.
