A body's potential energy is at its maximum when it is at its greatest height to which it is elevated from the ground or another chosen position, such as a table top.

Gravitational + Potential = 100 If you have 67 J of potential energy your gravitational energy would be 33 J.
It is different because gravitational potential energy is when something is getting pulled by gravity and potential energy is stored energy which means that it is not moving and the energy is not getting released as gravitational energy is.
Gravitational Potential Energy is equal to Potential Energy therefore the formula for GPE (Gravitational Potential Energy) is PE=mass x gravity x height therefore the formula is PE=mgh
Gravitational energy is the potential energy associated with gravitational force. If an object falls from one point to another point inside a gravitational field, the force of gravity will do positive work on the object, and the gravitational potential energy will decrease by the same amount.
The strength of the gravitational field.
