The term autism came about decades before the disorder was recognized. Autismus, the New Latin word that autism is derived from, was coined by the Swiss psychiatrist Eugen Ble â¦ uler in 1910. He used the term as a descriptor of symptoms of schizophrenia.
Lesson Summary. Electric potential energy is the energy a charge has due to its position relative to other charges. By separating two charges to a radius r, you are giving the charges electric potential energy relative to each other. When you release those charges, they will attract or repel, releasing that energy.
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.
