potential because its not moving if im not right sorry-
its potential
potential energy
i have an i pod and it is kinetic.
Batteries store potential energy, But after you connect it to the circuit then it converts to KINETIC ENERGY!
Well you can use energy by battery..
Think about a battery-powered motor. (Granted, the energy is originally chemical potential, but it is transferred to electrical potential when it comes out of the battery.)
Kinetic energy being converted to chemical potential energy
The difference between potential and kinetic energy is that potential is energy that is waiting to be utilized, such as a battery, a car on a hill, or food. Kinetic energy is potential energy that has been put to use, so the electricity from a battery, a car rolling down a hill, and using food energy to run are all examples of kinetic energy.
chemical potential energy to electrical enery to kinetic energy
kinetic
The conversion is Potential to Kinetic.
The chemical energy stored in a battery is a form of potential energy because it is stored in the chemical bonds of the battery's components (such as electrodes and electrolytes), and the energy is released when these bonds break during a chemical reaction. Kinetic energy, on the other hand, is associated with the motion of particles or objects, which is not the case with the chemical energy stored in a battery.
