The difference between potential and kinetic energy is that potential is energy that is waiting to be utilized, such as a battery, a car on a hill, or food. Kinetic energy is potential energy that has been put to use, so the electricity from a battery, a car rolling down a hill, and using food energy to run are all examples of kinetic energy.
Potential is due to position and kinetic is by virtue of motion.
PE = m g h
KE = 1/2 m v2
it is kinetic because it involves releasing the energy.
Kinetic energy is energy related to movement. The formula is (1/2) mass times velocity squared. Potential energy is energy of position. The formula for gravitional potential energy is mgh (mass times gravitation times height).
Chemical energy is a type of potential energy.
no, kinetic energy is the energy below so if u hold a ball up in the air it has most potential energy but if u drop the ball the potential energy goes down and the kinetic energy goes up.
When the earthquake is active its energy is kinetic because it involves the production of motion.
Difference is that kinetic energy is the energy of motion and potential is stored energy.
Potential is stored energy and Kinetic is just simple movement like windmills are powerd with Kinetic energy. They are both energy.
it is kinetic because it involves releasing the energy.
Kinetic energy is the motion of an object (real). Potential energy is a measure of the kinetic energy an object WOULD have if it were to be released and allowed to fall.
Potential energy is energy a body has due to its position. Kinetic energy is energy a body has due to its motion.
The difference between potential and kinetic energy all comes down to a very simple property of the object. If an object is moving, then it has kinetic energy, or kinetic energy is the energy of movement. Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object and can be released under the right conditions.
Potential energy is when the particles are at rest and kinetic energy is when the particles are in motion.
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
The main difference between potential and kinetic energy is that potential is energy that has the opportunity to become kinetic. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.examples of potential energy- a spring being squeezed; When you are at the top of the diving board getting ready to dive; winding up before you throw a pitch (in softball); etc.examples of kinetic energy- a person running; a car speeding; falling down the stairs; etc.
whats the difference between kinetic energy and potential energy
kinetic is not a potential energy because kinetic energy is made of movement but potential energies are stored but can be used
The two main forms of energy are Kinetic energy and Potential Energy. Kinetic energy is motion energy. Potential energy is energy stored in matter.
