It would depend.
Within a system there can be isolated factors influencing different kinetic and potential energies. If the kinetic energy was increased (Let's say gravity), and a random object is pushed off of a table (Now potential energy), the potential energy would in fact be increased.
This increase in energy is proportional in the potential and kinetic stages.
If the temperature were increased and a "reaction" occurred the potential energy would go up.

∙ 10y agoIf you refer to gravitational potential energy, the formula is:
PE = mgh
(mass x gravity x height).
As you can see, it is unrelated to temperature.

How were you able to increase the amount of potential energy the ball had?
As we increase the altitude of the ball the potential energy increases.
How does gravitational potential energy of an object increase?
On Earth, Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE) would increase with an increasing altitude.
How does mass and height affect potential energy?
Increased mass and/or height increase potential energy.
Are Heat energy and thermal energy opposite?
Thermal energy is the energy contained in a system at a specific temperature a combination of kinetic and potential of the particles. Heat Energy is similar as Thermal energy but when you add heat energy the Temperature of the system may decrease on increase.
How can you increase gravitational potential energy?
Potential gravitational energy is pretty theoretic, but exists as potential. So a ball sitting on the floor has little to no potential energy as it is as low as possible, but put that ball on a table, its potential energy increases. So the answer is to place things higher, on a surface of a sort. Mass and height
What affects potential?
Temperature is directly proportional to kinetic energy (potential energy).eg. increase the temperature, you increase the kinetic energy of the molecules, hence you're increasing the potential energy of them.
Does heat treatment increase the carbon content in carbon steel?
Heat increases the potential energy and temperature of steel.
What will happen if you increase the mass of an object what will the potential energy do?
If you increase the mass of an object, the potential energy will increase.
When temperature does not increase and there is a constant supply of energy where does the energy go?
One possibility is that the temperature is absorbed by a change of phase - for example, when ice melts. This is an increase in potential energy. Of course, it is also possible for energy to drain off (the object cools down while energy is being supplied).
What does potential energy depend on to increase?
Potential Energy depends on mass and height to increase(: Hope that helps.MassHeight
How were you able to increase the amount of potential energy the ball had?
As we increase the altitude of the ball the potential energy increases.
How does elevation effect potential energy due to gravity?
Increase in potential energy = weight x increase in height
How does gravitational potential energy of an object increase?
On Earth, Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE) would increase with an increasing altitude.
What happens to thermal energy when temperatures increase?
When the temperature of a material increase, thermal energy is added to the material. It also increases the kinetic and potential energy of the particles. When the temperature reach the boiling or melting point, the kinetic energy stays the same, but the thermal energy and the potential energy still keeps adding and increasing. And when ONLY the potential energy increase, the state of the material changes from one to another.
Why does the temperature remains constant during the change of state?
During the time of change of state,the heat or temperature is used to increase the potential energy and there by change of state.This time there will be no change in temperature.
Is temperature potential energy?
No.No.No.No.
How does mass and height affect potential energy?
Increased mass and/or height increase potential energy.
