Question

How are potential and kinetic energy different?

Potential energy is stored in a battery, and kinetic energy is released thermal energy that causes electricity.

Potential energy is stored in an object, and kinetic energy is released mechanical energy that causes motion.

Kinetic energy is the movement of an object, and potential energy is released electrical energy when an object moves.

Kinetic energy is stored in an object, and potential energy is released mechanical energy that causes motion.

Answer 1

Answer: The second option

Explanation: For example, if a ball is sitting at the top of a hill, it has a lot of potential energy. If it then falls off, potential energy will turn into kinetic energy and the ball will roll down the hill.

Answer 2

b) potential energy is stored in an object, and kinetic energy is released mechanical energy that causes motion.

Step-by-step explanation:

potential energy is stored because it is the possible energy of an object if a force is acted upon it. on the other hand, kinetic energy is essentially when potential energy is being acted upon or changed.
