Water, when stationary, has potential energy. When it's moving, it has kinetic energy. Take the water in a reservoir for example. held back by the dam, it has potential energy - because, although it's not doing anything, it has the 'potential' to move. When it's released to turn turbines, it has kinetic energy because it's moving.

Is kinetic or potential energy associated with the motion or position of an object?

Mechanical energy is kinetic or potential energy associated with the motion and position of an object.


What two forms of energy are associated with mechanical energy?

Palindrome for energy= pep kinetic energy + potential energy = mechanical energy


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

If an object's mechanical energy is equal to its potential energy how much kinetic energy does it have?

Mechanical Energy= Potential energy+ Kinetic energy, so for the mechanical energy to be equal to be potential energy, the kinetic energy must be 0.


What does potential energy and kinetic energy have to do with mechanical energy?

Potential and Kinetic Energy add up to produce mechanical energy.


The kinetic or potential energy associated with the motion and position of an object is?

This is actually two questions. Energy relating to the motion of an object is kinetic energy. Energy related to its position is potential energy (as with a brick suspended at some distance above the ground). Release the brick and its potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. The two are complementary. As the brick accelerates toward the ground its kinetic energy increases; as the distance decreases during that acceleration, it's potential energy decreases.


What type of energy is kinetic and potential?

Kinetic and potential energy are types of mechanical energy.


Can objects mechanical energy be equal to its gravitational potential energy?

Yes. Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy; this includes gravitational potential energy.


If an object's mechanical energy is equal to potential energy how much kinetic energy does the object have?

Mechanical energy is defined as the SUM of potential energy plus kinetic energy. If all of its mechanical energy is potential energy, it follows that it has no kinetic energy.

Is mechanical energy potential or kinect?

Both kinetic energy and potential energy are mechanical energy.
