The kinetic energy comes from potential energy, which he got from ATP energy, which is produced through food. Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy after the muscles contract and relax.

How does kenetic and potential energy affect soccer in general?

In soccer, you have a soccer ball. The ball has potential energy. When you kick the ball, the potential becomes kinetic energy and the ball moves. However, your foot has potential energy as well (all matter has potential energy because all matter has the potential to move). When you kick with your foot that potential energy becomes kinetic energy. When the soccer ball is on the ground it actually has no potential energy because potential energy is only associated with height. When the ball is kicked however the kinetic energy from the player is passed on to the ball. That kinetic energy makes the ball move. If the ball is kicked into the air then the kinetic energy is passed on and some of that kinetic energy transforms into potential energy and kinetic.


How are cells of multicellular organism like a baseball team?

Certain cells form connections, or cellular junctions, to neighboring cells. These junctions hold cells together firmly.

When a baseball player is holding a bat what kind of energy does the bat have?

It seems to be incorrect that the bat itself has any energy; rather, the batter's arm muscles contain the energy, which then transfers to the bat, which acts on the baseball.So, in short, it is the player that possesses the potential energy, not the bat.

A soccer player kicks a ball into the air and it lands far down the field Which energy conversion occurs as the ball falls from its highest point?

When a soccer player kicks a ball into the air, its kinetic energy is drained through air resistance and by the force of gravity. At its highest point, the ball has all of its vertical kinetic energy converted into potential energy. As the ball falls, this potential energy is converted back into kinetic energy. It should be noted that through the entire process of rising and falling the ball maintained horizontal kinetic energy being dissipated by resistance until it hit the ground and stopped.
