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.
Potential energy is energy stored in an object due to its position or arrangement. Kinetic energy is energy of an object due to its movement-its motion. All types of energy can be transformed into other types of energy. This is true for potential and kinetic energy as well. Potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy, and kinetic energy can be converted into potential energy.
