Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Potential energy and kinetic energy are types of mechanical energy.
Detailed explanation-2: -Kinetic comes from the Greek word “kinesis, ‘’ meaning motion. As we’ve seen, kinetic energy increases when mass and/or speed increases, and KE remains the same unless an object speeds up or slows down. There are two main types of kinetic energy: translational kinetic energy and rotational kinetic energy.
Detailed explanation-3: -Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object or substance. The two main types of potential energy are gravitational potential energy and elastic potential energy.
