Explanation:

Kinetic energy is either zero or positive, never negative. This is because kinetic energy is defined as half an objects' mass multiplied by the square of its velocity. Since mass is a measure of matter, it can never be negative, and since velocity is squared, it is always positive.

Answer:Kinetic energy is energy that comes from motion, it is always a positive value. If it is not in motion, the kinetic energy of that object is zero.Potential Energy is energy that is related to an object's potential. Potential energy can be positive, zero or negative. For example, if the datum is defined as the top of a table, and the object is on the floor, that object has a negative potential energy since the height below the top of the table.

Hope this helped you :)
