Potential energy is like a battery waiting to be used, while kinetic energy is that energy in action! They convert into each other. For example, a rollercoaster at the top of a hill has max potential energy, which turns into kinetic energy as it zooms down.

Potential energy can convert into kinetic energy when an object starts to move or changes state. Think of it like a roller coaster: at the top, you have lots of potential energy, and as you zoom down, that energy turns into kinetic energy!

They swap roles like actors in a play鈥攑otential energy sits in the wings until it's called to the stage as kinetic energy.

They're like two sides of the same energetic coin! Potential energy is stored energy, while kinetic energy is the energy of motion. One transforms into the other all the time.

Bro, it's simple: potential energy becomes kinetic energy when things move. Gravity does the rest.
