Describe the difference between potential and kinetic energy

Potential energy: To summarize, potential energy is the energy that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position. An object possesses gravitational potential energy if it is positioned at a height above (or below) the zero height.

Kinetic energy: Kinetic energy, a form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason of its motion. ... Kinetic energy is a property of a moving object or particle and depends not only on its motion but also on its mass.

Hope that helps

potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by vitue of its possition relative to others stresses with itself electric charge and other factors. kinetic energy is energy which a body possesses by being in motion
