Here is your answer...
Definition of Kinetic Energy
Simply put, the energy of motion is kinetic energy. The work required for accelerating the object of a certain mass, from the state of rest to motion. To speed up an object, we apply force, through which energy is transferred from one object to another, causing the object to move at a new and constant speed. The energy transferred is called kinetic energy, determined by speed and mass of the object, i.e. the greater the mass and speed, the more kinetic energy it contains.
The kinetic energy of an object, in motion, with a certain velocity, is same as the work performed on it. All the objects that are in motion or action, irrespective of horizontal or vertical motion, possess kinetic energy. It is the energy which an object acquires, owing to its state of motion. For example,Falling of coconut, flowing of a river, moving of car or bus, etc. The different forms of kinetic energy are:
Vibrational Energy
Rotational Energy
Translational Energy
Definition of Potential Energy
The term potential energy implies the energy which is stored in an object, at rest, as a consequence of its position relative to a zero position. The energy is stored within the physical body, due to overcoming forces of nature. It is present in every object which has a position, and mass within a force field. For example, Notebook on the table, ball at the top of the hill, stretched rubber band, etc.
When the state of the object changes from rest to motion, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. It forces the object to come back at its initial position, i.e. state of rest because it works counter to any displacement, this is why it is known as restoring energy. With the increase in the speed of the moving object, the potential energy decreases, and vice versa. The various types of potential energy are:
Gravitational Energy
Elastic Energy
Electrical Energy
Chemical Energy
Nuclear Energy
