Mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic and potential energy.
Thermal
The total kinetic and potential energy of its particles.
In microscopic particles, it's called internal energy. In macroscopic object it's called thermodynamic energy
Internal energy
The total potential and kinetic energy of a MICROSCOPIC object is it's INTERNAL ENERGY.
When an object cools, the particles' kinetic energy transfers back into potential energy, the particles slow down.
False
Yes, as this equation makes it possible E=mc^2 . ------------> mass energy is different from potential energy An object has kinetic and potential energy (such as a falling apple) because commonly kinetic energy is converted to potential energy and vice versa due to conservation of energy. The sum of kinetic and potential energy needs to be taken for the total energy of the object.

Potential energy is the energy contained in the position of an object, so object hanging on a tree would be potential energy.
No. The average kinetic energy of the individual particles in an object is basically related to the object's temperature.
