Potential energy and kinetic energy are like BFFs! Potential energy waits around all still and patient, and when it's time for action, it morphs into kinetic energy like a superhero.
They鈥檙e two sides of the same coin, really. You got potential energy at rest, and when it moves, it turns into kinetic energy.
Potential energy is like the stored energy while kinetic energy is the energy of motion. When an object starts moving, its potential energy converts into kinetic energy!
I once threw a ball off a cliff (for science). At the top, it had potential energy. Once it fell, that energy transformed into kinetic energy!
