Potential energy (PE)
appears in many different forms, and is defined as the energy in matter due to its position or the arrangement of its parts. The various forms of potential energy include gravitational potential energy, elastic potential energy, chemical potential energy, and electrical potential energy.
26
Kinetic energy (KE)
is the energy of motion. Potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as soon as the object begins to move. A thrown football, a speeding automobile, a waterfall, or a rock falling from a cliff are examples of objects that have kinetic energy.
