Kinetic if power is flowing, Potential if power isn't flowing. If you have a circuit with a battery and a light and everything is connected (the light is on). That's kinectic since the electrons are flowing through the circuit. A battery with nothing connected to it is potential energy because the power is going anywhere.
Kinetic because electricity or electrical energy is a flow of small particles called electrons.
Static electricity is a form of potential energy, as it is not flowing.
Therefore it can be either (just like mechanical energy).
Electricity is not considered to be either kinetic or potential energy; it is its own category, electrical energy.
it is not kinetic, and it can become potential if it is stored in a body, such as a battery.
kinetic
Kinetic energy is if power is flowing and potential energy is if power is not flowing.
If there is a completed circuit and electrons are flowing throughout the circuit, the electric energy is kinetic energy.
If there is a battery that is not connected to anything, the electric energy is potential energy.

Is light and electricity a form of kinetic or potential energy?
It is energy of moving electrons
What kind of energy's are there?
two min types of energy are mechanical in the case of motion and electricity in which case is electricity.
Is electrical energy a kinetic energy or potential energy?
Neither, it is chemical! Static and current electricity are examples of it.
What are the two types of mechanical energy?
Potential energy and kinetic energy. mechanical energy is the energy of motion(kinetic energy)or the potential of motion(potential energy) so i would say-kinetic and potential energy

What are the two main forms of energy?
The two main forms of energy are Kinetic energy and Potential Energy. Kinetic energy is motion energy. Potential energy is energy stored in matter.
What energy transformation occurs in a windmill used to generate electricity?
kinetic energy (potential energy) which transfers to mechanical energy
Is Electrical energy a type of kinetic or potential energy?
Neither, it is chemical! Static and current electricity are examples of it.
Is electromagnetic kinetic or potential?
Electromagnetic energy is just a name used to describe various forms of energy that are related to electricity & magnetism. So electromagnetic energy might include the kinetic energy of moving charges, or the potential energy between charges or magnets or it might refer to the energy of radiation, which is neither kinetic or potential energy.
How does a hydroelectric dam change the type of energy?
There are several. Gravitational potential energy is transformed into linear kinetic energy, which is then transformed into rotational kinetic energy, which is then transformed into electrical energy.
What converts electrical energy to machanical energy?
A motor. If electricity passes through it, the motor rotates(kinetic/potential energy)
What converts machanical energy to electrical energy?
A motor. If electricity passes through it, the motor rotates(kinetic/potential energy)
