What is the reason why your car remains stationary when parked?
When a car is parked, the parking brake is engaged, preventing the wheels from moving. In addition, the transmission is usually in "Park" mode, which locks the transmission, further preventing movement. These mechanisms work together to keep the car stationary when parked.
What is the velocity of a parked car?
The velocity of a parked car is zero because it is not in motion. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction; since the car is stationary, it has no speed and therefore no velocity.

What reason that your car remains stationary when parked even on a steep hill?
When a car is parked on a steep hill, it remains stationary primarily due to the force of gravity and the engagement of the parking brake. The parking brake, which typically engages the rear wheels, creates friction that prevents the car from rolling downhill. Additionally, if the car is in gear, the engine's resistance can further help keep it in place. Together, these factors ensure that the vehicle does not move while parked.
In the following situations which one does not have kinetic energy?

A car backed out and hit my car. I was not in the car but she is claiming i was parked in an illegal spot?
I hope you got a police report. In any case, whether or not you were parked legally is not relevant. A driver is responsible for damages caused when hitting any stationary object... like a parked car. Just offer to take her to small claims court, or contact a lawyer. Most lawyers would just consider that one fun.
Who is liable in a rear end collision if the car that was rear ended was parked?
As long as the parked vehicle is parked properly and not illegally parked in any manner, then the vehicle that rear-ended the parked car is at fault. Now if the parked car is sitting illegally (such as double parked or parked in a no parking zone, etc.) then the parked car is at fault or even both the parked car AND the car that hits it are BOTH at fault.
