The football has (gravitational) potential energy because of its position above the ground. It also has kinetic energy because it is moving. The combined energy is called mechanical energy.
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, KE=mv2/2.Thermal energy is different from kinetic energy.Thermal energy is associated with the temperature of a body, the heat gained by increasing the temperature. That heat gives molecules more kinetic energy and more potential energy and may also give molecules more more electronic energy.
Kinetic and Potential EnergyHistoryA roller coaster train going down hill represents merely a complex case as a body is descending an inclined plane. Newton's first two laws relate force and acceleration, which are key concepts in roller coaster physics. At amusement parks, Newton's laws can be applied to every ride. These rides range from 'The Swings' to The 'Hammer'. Newton was also one of the developers of calculus which is essential to analyzing falling bodies constrained on more complex paths than inclined planes. A roller coaster rider is in an gravitational field except with the Principle of Equivalence.Potential EnergyPotential energy is the same as stored energy. The "stored" energy is held within the gravitational field. When you lift a heavy object you exert energy which later will become kinetic energy when the object is dropped. A lift motor from a roller coaster exerts potential energy when lifting the train to the top of the hill. The higher the train is lifted by the motor the more potential energy is produced; thus, forming a greater amount if kinetic energy when the train is dropped. At the top of the hills the train has a huge amount of potential energy, but it has very little kinetic energy.Kinetic EnergyThe word "kinetic" is derived from the Greek word meaning to move, and the word "energy" is the ability to move. Thus, "kinetic energy" is the energy of motion --it's ability to do work. The faster the body moves the more kinetic energy is produced. The greater the mass and speed of an object the more kinetic energy there will be. As the train accelerates down the hill the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. There is very little potential energy at the bottom of the hill, but there is a great amount of kinetic energy.TheoryWhen the train is at the top and bottom of the hill there is not any potential or kinetic energy being used at all. The train at the bottom of the first drop should have enough energy to get back up the height of the lift hill. The "Act of Faith" in riding these amazing rides which seems more of a phenomena that is only a theory. In practices, the train never could make it back up the hill because of dissipative forces. Friction and air resistance, and even possible mid-course breaks, are dissipative forces causing the theory to be changed but not destroyed. These forces make it impossible for the train to have enough energy to make it back up the lift hill's height. In the absence of the dissipative forces the potential and kinetic energies(mechanical energy) will remain the same. Since the mechanical energy is destroyed by the forces, the first hill is always the highest
the movement in dance is kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is =1/2(mass)(velocity)^2.if this is a homework question,it might also relate to impulses (see link).http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse
Think of potential energy as stored energy, and kinetic energy as energy that puts an object in motion (i.e., increases the magnitude of velocity). In general you can set them equal to each other, to for example determine the velocity an object will be atLet U = kinetic energy and K = kinetic energyU = mgh (mass, gravity, height)K = (1/2)mv2 (mass, velocity)If you set U and K equal to each other.U = Kmgh = (1/2)mv2masses cancel out leaving you withv2= 2gh (or about 20h)The higher an object is from the surface of the ground, the more potential energy it has. Looking at the equation I listed, you can see velocity get's higher as height increases. The velocity in this equation is what velocity it would be at the instant the object hit the surface.
In a system the potential energy is related to forces acting between bodies inside the system. Kinetic energy of a moving body is defined as K=(1/2)*m*v^2 where m is the mass of the body and v its velocity. If no energy is transfered to or from the system then the sum of the system's kinetic and potential energy remains constant.answer2: The universe is composed or quaternions, a real number or scalar and 3 vector numbers. Energy has these two types the potential energy is the real part and kinetic energy is the vector part, for example take gravity energy:E = Pot + Kin = -mGm/r + mcV = -mu/r + mcV ,where the potential gravitational energy is the scalar part and mcV is the kinetic vector energy. V is the velocity vector.Currently Physics defines "energy as a scalar" in spite of Torque, a vector FxR with units joule or Newton -meter.Well, kinetic energy is the energy of motion and potential energy is the energy of positionPotential Energy. Stored energy that results from the position or shape of an object.Kinetic Energy Energy that an object has due to its motion.HistoryA roller coaster train going downhill represents merely a complex case as a body is descending an inclined plane.

Potential energy and kinetic energy are related in that potential energy is the stored energy an object has due to its position or condition, while kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. When an object with potential energy starts moving, that potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. In other words, potential energy can be transformed into kinetic energy as an object moves, and vice versa.
Maximum kinetic energy occurs at the bottom of the swing. Maximum potential energy occurs at the top of the swing.
The two main types of energy that relate to motion are kinetic energy, which is associated with the motion of an object, and potential energy, which is associated with the position or configuration of an object that can lead to motion.
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy is stored energy that has the potential to be converted into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is directly related to an object's motion, while potential energy is related to an object's position or condition. The two types of energy are interrelated because potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy and vice versa.
Potential energy is the energy an object has due to its position or condition, while kinetic energy is the energy an object has due to its motion. They are related because potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy and vice versa. When an object is in motion, it has kinetic energy, but when it stops moving, that energy is converted into potential energy.
Potential energy + kinetic energy = total energy. Potential energy is stored or positional energy; chemical energy stored in a battery, a large weight up high where we can get gravity to do work with it. Kinetic energy is energy of motion; energy = 1/2mv^2.
kinetic energy is enegy being used, the opposite of potential energy, which is energy being stored, or waiting to be used. When a ball bounces it is using its energy. When a ball is held by a person, it holds potential energy, or the potential to use energy.
The speed of a skater is directly related to both their kinetic energy, which increases with speed, and their potential energy, as greater speed can lead to higher elevation and increased potential energy. As a skater accelerates, their kinetic energy rises due to their increased velocity, while potential energy can also increase as the skater gains height or position above the ground.
There is a one to one relationship.
Potential energy is when the body is in a particular position.The position of a object changes rapidly due to gravitional force of the earth.Kinetic energy is the energy when the object is in motion.there is no chemical energy relating with these energies.
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, KE=mv2/2.Thermal energy is different from kinetic energy.Thermal energy is associated with the temperature of a body, the heat gained by increasing the temperature. That heat gives molecules more kinetic energy and more potential energy and may also give molecules more more electronic energy.
A pogo sticks spring is compressed due to the persons weight. Potential energy is high while the kinetic energy is low at this point. when that spring then relaxes the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy due to the acceleration of the pogo stick going up in the air.
