Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object, and can be changed into kinetic, or other forms of energy. There are many types, such as Elastic Potential Energy and Gravitational Potential Energy.

What is energy stored in an object called?

Stored energy is called Potential EnergyStored energy is called Potential energy.


When a coconut falls when does it have gravitational potential energy?

An object has potential engergy when it is any height above the ground. The object does not have to be moving to have engergy. This is like a stored energy. It takes energy to move or raise an object to a height level. This object now has stored that energy.


Is energy stored in an object due to its position called kinetic energy?

No, that is potential energy. Kinetic is only possessed by moving objects


What is general energy?

Energy is a force that always attempts to equalise itself e.g if you put a hot object on a cold object the heat will try to spread out between the two. It may also be stored in matter e.g kinetic energy can be stored in a moving object.


Is energy that is stored in an object?

Stored Energy.


How is the gravitational potential energy stored in an object converted into kinetic energy?

Gravity pulls the object and its velocity increases. The kinetic energy of a moving object is 1/2*m*v2


Is potential energy in motion?

Potential energy is stored energy. Kinetic energy is the energy an object has due to it's motion.


What is an objects total and potential energy?

An objects total kinetic and potential energy is when both things are moving (kinetic) and the energy is stored in the object (potential)


Examples for kinetic energy?

any moving object is called kinetic energy and stored energy is potential energy. Eg:energy is stored while kicking a ball and it is released when the ball is kicked. this is potential energy to kinetic energy.


What do you call energy if an object is moving?

When an object is moving, it is called kinetic energy.


What type of energy of rest or stored energy?

Energy is stored in form of chemical energy. It is stored in object at rest.


Compare potential and kinetic energy?

The difference between potential and kinetic energy all comes down to a very simple property of the object. If an object is moving, then it has kinetic energy, or kinetic energy is the energy of movement. Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object and can be released under the right conditions.
