Why do particles of objects have both kinetic and potential energy?

∙ 6y ago
Particles have both potential and 'kinetic' energy because the energy is a quaternion consisting of a scalar Es and a vector Ev, E = Es + Ev. The 'kinetic' energy is a vector energy mcV. Currently physics 'defines' energy as a scalar not a quaternion, thus 'kinetic' energy is also a scalar and not the vector its name denotes.
The idea of potential and kinetic energy implies the quaternion nature of energy, a scalar or potential energy and a vector or kinetic energy.
To update Newton's Gravitational Theory E = -mGM/r + mcV = -mu/r + mcV.
-mu/r is the potential or scalar or real energy and mcV is the vector or kinetic energy!
For Electric energy is the same E = -e2zc/2r + mcV.
The wave particle Theory is seen in E = hf + mcV = hc/r + mcV = Q2zc/r + mcV.
Physics needs to recognize that the universe is composed of quaternions and energy and other quantities are composed of a scalar or real number and three vector numbers ala William Rowan Hamilton. The same mis naming occurs in Torque = FxR is clearly a vector energy but is precluded from being energy because of the definition of energy as a scalar.

What are the forms of energy associated with the particles of objects?
kinetic and potential
What are forms of energy associated with the particles that make up objects?
kinetic and potential
What energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy in a system of objects?
The sum of the potential and kinetic energy of large-scale objects in a system is the Hamiltonian.
Which type of energy does a moving object have?
Kinetic Energy, or KE, is the energy objects have when in basic motion. If you are talking about the movement of particles in the object, creating heat, it is IE, Internal Energy. and FYI, Potential Energy, PE, is the energy an object has in accordance to its position.
What is the sum of the kinetic and potential energy of large scale objects in a system?
The sum of the potential and kinetic energy of large-scale objects in a system is the Hamiltonian.
What are the forms of energy associated with the particles of objects?

What are forms of energy associated with the particles that make up objects?
kinetic and potential
What is the total potential and kinetic energy of the particles of an object is the objects?
In microscopic particles it's called internal energy. In macroscopic particles it's called thermodynamic energy.
What is an objects total and potential energy?
An objects total kinetic and potential energy is when both things are moving (kinetic) and the energy is stored in the object (potential)
Why do the particle of objects have both kinetic and potential energy?
The particles that make up an object with have both types of energy because they are at some height (gravitational potential), vibrating back and forth (kinetic energy, and made of charged particles electric potential because of electric fields).
What energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy in a system of objects?
The sum of the potential and kinetic energy of large-scale objects in a system is the Hamiltonian.
The thermal energy of an object is?
The total kinetic and potential energy of its particles.
Difference between potential and kenetic energy?
Potential energy is when the particles are at rest and kinetic energy is when the particles are in motion.
Which type of energy is total kinetic and potential energy particles in an object?
Mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic and potential energy.
