It is released (it has been stored in the spring) and appears as kinetic energy
potential energy changes to kinetic energy
As an object gains kinetic energy (movement), its potential energy decreases. This is because the energy is being converted from potential energy to kinetic energy. The total mechanical energy of the object (kinetic energy + potential energy) remains constant if no external forces are acting on the object.
An object's potential energy doesn't depend on its speed. You can do anything you like with the object's speed, and it has no effect on potential energy.
The release of energy (exothermic reaction) happens when the energy release by forming the products of the reaction is greater than the energy required to break the bonds of the reactants.
In a closed system, the total energy (kinetic + potential) remains constant, following the principle of conservation of energy. As kinetic energy increases, potential energy decreases, and vice versa. This continuous exchange between kinetic and potential energy allows the system to maintain a constant total energy.
we release the potential energy to heat energy to do work
As speed increases, potential energy decreases. This is because potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as an object gains speed.
Potential energy will decrease.
When potential energy is high, kinetic energy is low.
potential energy changes to kinetic energy
If potential energy is not converted into kinetic energy (or into any other type of energy) then it remains potential. Potential energy does not expire.
The potential energy of the molecules change during a reaction.
The potential energy is transformed to heat or light energy
Its potential energy increases as it regains its shape.
Negative work increases potential energy.
When the object with the potential energy is released. For example, if you hold a lead ball in your hand at shoulder height it has potential energy. As soon as you release it from your hand its potential energy will begin to be converted to kinetic energy.
it means potential (as in my case, Gravitational Potential energy)
