Which of the following is an example of potential energy? group of answer choices water turning a turbine for electricity. water in the clouds. water falling to earth as rain. water evaporating into the atmosphere.

The correct answer is Water in the clouds.

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy associated with the relationship between where a body is located and the field or system of forces that surrounds it.

So, if the potential energy is the energy stored by a body and then used, we can say that the water stored in the clouds is an example of this.

Once this water falls down, the energy will cease to be potential because it will already be in motion and will no longer be stored.

Given this information we can say that the correct answer is Water in the clouds.
