Detailed explanation-1: -Kinetic energy is the stored energy that can be used for motion.

Detailed explanation-2: -Potential energy is the stored energy in any object or system by virtue of its position or arrangement of parts. However, it isn’t affected by the environment outside of the object or system, such as air or height. On the other hand, kinetic energy is the energy of an object or a system’s particles in motion.

Detailed explanation-3: -The false option is c. Kinetic energy is not the energy associated with the position or composition. It is the energy related with motion.

Detailed explanation-4: -Kinetic energy can be stored. For example, it takes work to lift a weight and place it on a shelf or to compress a spring. What happens to the energy then? We know that energy is conserved, i.e., it cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be converted from one form to another.

Detailed explanation-5: -Potential energy is stored energy and the energy of position. Chemical energy is energy stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules.
