This does not happen in potential energy. The kinetic energy of a body with the mass âmâ moving at a velocity âvâ is one half the products of the mass of the body and the square of its velocity. i.e., K.E. = (1/2) * m * v2. The average kinetic energy of the atoms or molecules is measured by the temperature of the body.
Kinetic energy vs. Potential energy Energy is the ability to do work. Objects can have stored, or potential, energy when work has been done (such as raising an object in the air) or by virtue of their position (such as sitting at the top of a hill).
