Kinetic Energy
Kinetic energy is the amount of energy which an object possesses due to its motion.
Kinetic Energy=1/2mv^2
Potential Energy
*Potential energy is the energy which an object possesses due to it position or stored energy.
*Potential Energy=mass x gravity x height
*PE=mgh
Remember gravity is always 9.8 m/s^2
The Unit for PE & KE is Joules
*PE=mgh
Remember gravity is always 9.8 m/s^2
The Unit for PE & KE is Joules
