☆☆☆☆☆Kinetic energy is the energy that an object has due to its motion or movement. For instance if a car drives into a wall the energy of its movement is what destroys the wall, That energy is kinetic energy.
Note: Heat is also a form of Kinetic energy because heat is the movement (vibration energy) of atoms or molecules.
however, this law doesn't apply to nuclear reactions because some matter is turned into energy.
Gravitational potential energy is the potential energy an object has due to its position in a gravitational field. The higher an object is the greater its gravitational potential. When it falls the gravitational potential becomes kinetic energy.
Energy stored in height differences ~APEX
It is another form of potential stored in food, batteries, and fuel.
an anthill
Anything that lives except air, light, sound.
The law of conservation of energy
Water freezing into ice is an example of a phase change from liquid to solid.

The government could take away research funds if ethical standards are not met.
Argon (Ar) is one of them
Chemical potential energy converting to heat energy- apex
