Why do fields store potential energy? an object in the field has charge, fields don’t store potential energy, stationary objects within the field will move when released, or an object in the field has mass. Please help me, which one?

Hey

Your answer would be:

stationary objects within the field will move when realesed.

The reason why is because fields store potential energy as you know. when something is stationary it has potential, but when it is released that potential energy turns into kinetic energy.

this made me think of a funny joke:

A man was about to jump off of the Empire State Building when a physicist from below yield, Wait don't! you have so much potential!

lol always cracks me up.

answer and explanation;

talk back to him about the sport and show him your expertise or leave the room
