Question

what is kinetic energy and potential energy

Answer 1

the energy possesed by the object due to the virtue of the  motion of the object is called kinetic energy

the energy possesed by the object due to the virtue of position of the object is called potential energy

the sum of kinetic energy  and potential energy is mechanical energy

Answer 2

Ciao,
kinetic energy is tge energy which a body posses dur to its motion
and potential energy is the energy of the body due to its position.
formula for k.E is k.E =.5mv2
and for p.E it is p.E = mgh
i really hope that you will find it helpful.stay blessed
