Question
Explain the difference between potential energy and kinetic energy.
| Kinetic Energy | Potential Energy |
| (i) Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by the body due to its motion. | (i) Potential energy is the energy possessed by the body because of its shape or position. |
| (ii) K.E = $1/2 mv^2$ | (ii) P.E = mgh |
| (iii) e.g., flowing water, such as when falling from a waterfall. | (iii) e.g., water at the top of a waterfall, before the drop. |
