Question

Differentiate potential energy from kinetic energy​

Answer 1

Kinetic and Potential Energy Difference

Energy is one of the physical quantities as it is proportional to the mass of the object. When an object is at rest, the body is said to possess potential energy. In another case, when the object is in motion, then it is said to possess kinetic energy.

Kinetic Energy versus Potential Energy comparison

Kinetic Energy Potential Energy

• Definition= The energy of a body or a system with respect to the motion of the body or of the particles in the system.Potential Energy is the stored energy in an object or system because of its position or configuration.
• Relation to environment=Kinetic energy of an object is relative to other moving and stationary objects in its immediate environment.Potential energy is not relative to the environment of an object.
• Transferability=Kinetic energy can be transferred from one moving object to another, say, in collisions.Potential energy cannot be transferred.
• Examples=Flowing water, such as when falling from a waterfall.Water at the top of a waterfall, before the precipice.
• SI Unit=Joule (J)
• Determining factors= Speed/velocity and mass Height or distance and mass
