Question

What statement best compares potential and kinetic energy

Answer 1

a man holding a baseball is potential energy, but when the ball is thrown, it is kinetic

Answer 2

if the choices are:

A. Objects always have more potential energy than kinetic energy.

B. Only kinetic energy increases when the velocity of an object increases.

C. Only potential energy decreases when an object’s height increases.

D. Objects always have more kinetic energy than potential energy.

then the ans is B. Only kinetic energy increases when the velocity of an object increases.
