Kinetic energy
If a juggler is holding a ball, say, the ball has Potential Energy. When the ball is dropped, the ball has Kinetic Energy.
-- A ball on a shelf has gravitational potential energy with respect to the floor. -- A ball in motion has kinetic energy. -- A ball of fire has heat energy. -- A ball of trinitrotoluene has chemical energy. -- A ball of charged pith has static electric energy. -- A ball of U235 has nuclear energy.
potential. And then when you drop it, it becomes kinetic.
Gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy
Kinetic energy.
the type of energy is potential energy
A falling book in mid-air has what kind of energy?

It matters what kind of tv you have.
-- A ball on a shelf has gravitational potential energy with respect to the floor. -- A ball in motion has kinetic energy. -- A ball of fire has heat energy. -- A ball of trinitrotoluene has chemical energy. -- A ball of charged pith has static electric energy. -- A ball of U235 has nuclear energy.
-- It has both potential and kinetic energy. -- The farther it falls, the less potential energy it has. -- Its kinetic energy keeps increasing until it reaches its terminal velocity, then the KE becomes constant. -- There's also some heat energy involved, on account of the friction between the ball and the air. That energy transfers between the ball and the air in a way that's probably quite complex.
