Give examples of bodies (systems of interacting bodies) with potential energy. The potential energy of the body depends on such physical quantities. Write down the formulas expressing these dependencies in a notebook.
The potential energy is provided by water in rivers held by a dam; the energy of compressed and twisted springs, which are used in mechanical watches, wind-up toys; potential energy of compressed gas is used in the operation of heat engines.
