Nope! Potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy, and during that conversion, they could be equal, but not otherwise.
Potential energy can convert to kinetic energy, like a rollercoaster at the top of a hill, but they鈥檙e not always equal.
No, they are generally different forms of energy but can be converted into each other depending on the situation.
Potential energy is stored energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. They become each other, but they're not always equal.
