Kinetic energy is the energy of motion; a thrown object has kinetic energy.
POTENTIAL ENERGY is energy when something has energy but is currently stored and not being used. Example: Batteries have electrical energy stored in them but is not used until put inside of a camera, controller, remote, and etc. KINETIC ENERGY is energy when something is being moved, thrown, rolled, or spun by force. Example: When a football is thrown from the Quarterback to the Receiver, the ball is thrown using KINETIC ENERGY.
Energy is the capacity to do work, and kinetic energy is the energy of an object due to its motion.
Energy in physics has to do with either kinetic or potential "work". The ability of something to move. Motion is caused by the vibration of atoms. If the atoms were not moving (ie. at absolute zero), then there would be no kinetic energy by the highest potential energy. If the atoms (or more exactly, particles) were moving close to the speed of light, the kinetic energy would be at the highest point and potential energy at the lowest point.
Work = change in Kinetic Energy Because friction acts in the opposite direction of the motion of an object, kinetic energy must be decreased in order to maintain the above equation. Friction opposes motion. Friction converts the kinetic energy of a particle into heat and sound.
Kinetic energy is movement, Potential energy is stored energy, and so it doesn't really apply to any of them...

Kinetic energy is one type of energy; work is the transfer of certain types of energy.

something is movingBy; Jerry Jean C 11/15/2010thank you
Any kind of movement is kinetic energy.
The forms of energy that do work is kinetic energy.
the Work-Energy Theorem states the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy.
Work is the change in kinetic energy and the change in potential energy. W=∆KE W=∆PE
Elastic cars work by converting elastic potential energy into kinetic energy. The most potential energy, the more kinetic energy.
This is homework so you need to work out the answer for yourself. Here are some facts to help:-Kinetic energy is energy gained by motion.wow, loser who answered above. lol.the answer is false. lets think about this here 4 a minute. kinetic energy is energy gained by motion. that means that kinetic energy allows for motion and movement. so if you put a lot of kinetic energy (motion) into something, its gonna move more, because it has more of this energy rite? like when you push something across a desk. it moves, rite? and if you push it harder, you gave it more kinetic energy, so it moved farther.^^ hope this helped ^^

Kinetic energy is energy of matter. The kinetic is doing work. Tempature is measured of average energy of motion, particles of matter. The physical is pretty much doing the same thing as the kinetic. They both are doing work.
