Kinetic and Potential Energy
Kinetic Energy is energy from movement. If an object moves, it has kinetic energy. If it is not moving, it does not have kinetic energy.
Also, the faster an object moves, the more kinetic energy it has.
Potential Energy is stored energy. We can store energy in lots of ways. We can store it in batteries, gasoline, electrical outlets, and even food. All these are energies just waiting to be used.
