Both are forms of energy. Potential energy is the available energy that could be used and Kinetic energy is the energy actually being used. Think of Potential energy as being a high cliff with water...
No, Kinetic energy is different than Potential energy. Kinetic energy is energy possessed by the object due to its motion. it depends on the velocity of the object to a great extent Potential energy...
In a system the potential energy is related to forces acting between bodies inside the system. Kinetic energy of a moving body is defined as K=(1/2)*m*v^2 where m is the mass of the body and v its...
