Define potentiol energy , kenetic energy.​

Potential energy is stored energy. For example, if a bowling ball is on top of a giant hill, we say it has potential energy because it has the potential to do work which is to roll down the hill.

Kinetic energy is the energy of movement so once that ball rolls down that hill, that potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

Hey there!

Potential energy and kinetic energy are the two main groups of energy when it comes to all of that. Potential energy is stored energy. Kinetic energy is the energy that is released.

For example, potential energy is when you hold a ball higher than the ground,  and kinetic energy is when you release the ball.

Hope this helps! Have a great day! :)

it doesn't. it was imagined up in the middle ages.
