Different types of energies differ from each other due to the forms in which they exist. In this case :
Kinetic Energy is a form of energy which is possessed by one during his relative motion.
Chemical Energy is mainly due to strength of the chemical bonds in the substances.

Is a book falling down from a high shelf kinetic or potential energy?
It's neither. It's just a piece of fruit. While it's hanging and not moving, it has gravitational potential energy because of its position, and food potential energy because of its chemical composition. When it separates from the tree and moves to a different location, such as the ground or a processing plant, it has kinetic energy because of its motion. Its chemical potential energy doesn't change until it's processed, consumed, or rotted.
How can chemical energy change to kinetic energy?
Any number of ways. If you're looking for an example then connecting a battery to an electric motor would do. Chemical energy in the battery is changed to electrical energy in the circuit, which the motor then converts to kinetic energy.
Differentiate kinetic energy from potential energy?
Kinetic energy is the energy something has because it is moving. Potential energy is the energy something has because of its position or configuration.
Is kinetic energy the same as static energy?
No, Potential Energy is the energy of an object that has the potential to move while kinetic energy is the energy of an object at motion. Potential energy is defined by Mass * Gravity(9.81ms-2) * height(In meters) Kinetic energy is defined by (1/2)*Mass*Velocity2
Is the food you eat potential or kinetic energy?
The food energy that can be utilized by the eater of the food is chemical potential energy. In a food fight, when the food is propelled through the air, it temporarily acquires some kinetic energy as well, which has nothing to do with its identity as food, and can't be utilized by eating the food, since it must come to rest before the eating commences. ________ All matter is made up of a combination of kinetic and potential energy. The kinetic energy that comprises your food is all the energy of motion of its molecules. The hotter your food, the faster its molecules are moving and the more kinetic energy they posess. Also, as mentioned above, if you throw your food, it will posess bulk kinetic energy. However, the majority of the energy contained within food is potential energy stored within what you could think of as unhappy chemical bonds. When you eat food, your body invests a little energy to break apart these unhappy bonds and makes new, happier bonds between the food molecules and the oxygen you breathe. When these happy bonds form, a large ammount of energy is released. Your body uses this energy for running around and having food fights.
The chemical potential energy of a rocket is converted to what kind of energy?
The Chemical Potential Energy stored in a rocket will be converted to Kinetic Energy because the chemical fuel will launch the rocket into motion (Kinetic Energy).
How is a space shuttle an example of chemical energy?
Because when it is launched the chemical energy in the fuel is converted to kinetic energy of the space vehicle.
If chemical energy can be used to produce kinetic energy what is an example of using chemical energy to produce kinetic energy?
Your car.
What type of energy transformations does muscles perform?
It is chemical to kinetic energy.
What is the transfer of?
When one form of energy (kinetic energy, potential energy, chemical energy ,ect) is changed into another energy (chemical, kinetic, sound, ect)
What is the energy transfer?
When one form of energy (kinetic energy, potential energy, chemical energy ,ect) is changed into another energy (chemical, kinetic, sound, ect)
What is the transfer of energy?
When one form of energy (kinetic energy, potential energy, chemical energy ,ect) is changed into another energy (chemical, kinetic, sound, ect)
Example of electrical energy changing to chemical energy to kinetic energy?
how can you change potencial energy to kinetic energy
Does fossil fuels such as coal store chemical kinetic energy?
Fossil fuels such as coal store chemical kinetic energy?
What does kinetic energy mean in science?
Kinetic energy is energy of movement. If an object moves it has kinetic energy. For instance, when you walk chemical energy in your food is converted to kinetic energy in your muscles.
Exercise may transform the chemical energy in the food you eat into?
Chemical energy in the form of the glucose in our food is turned into mechanical energy
Is hydropower a chemical energy?
No, hydropower is not chemical energy. It is potential plus kinetic energy.
