Any object which is moving from a lower level to a higher level is converting kenetic energy (ie climbing a set of stairs for example) to potential energy. A car which has been parked at the top of a hill has used kenetic enegry to get up there and has potential to roll down to the bottom of the hill if the brake is released.

What is the relationship between a kinetic an potential energy?

When potiental increases, kinetic decreases and vice versa.


Is earth running out of energy?

Energy doesnt run out, it is just transferred. For example, a ball in a high place is said to have potential kinetic energy, if it then falls that energy is transferred to kinetic and thermal energy. Upon rest, the ball again has potential kinetic energy.


When objects kinetic energy can be transferred.?

When objects collide or touch, kinetic (mechanical) energy can be transferred.


Is rolling down a grassy hill kinetic or potiental?

Any time something falls, rolls, or slides down, gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.


When objects blank kinetic energy can be transferred?

When objects collide or touch, kinetic (mechanical) energy can be transferred.


Can kinetic energy be transferred to another object?

Yes, kinetic energy can be transferred to another object. When we consider billards, we see this idea in action. The kinetic energy of a ball can be transferred to another ball.


What is the transfer of energy usually caused by wind?

The wind is an example of kinetic energy - the energy of motion. It is generally transferred as kinetic erergy to, say, a windmill where it could pump water and the kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.


What is it called when thermal energy is transferred?
