Is Potential Energy Always Greater Than Kinetic Energy?
Nope! Sometimes kinetic energy is greater, especially when something's moving fast, like a car zooming down the highway. It all depends on the situation.

Potential energy and kinetic energy can vary greatly depending on the circumstances. Sometimes one dominates, sometimes the other.
Kinetic energy can be greater if the object is in motion and has a high velocity compared to its position-related potential energy.
Nope, potential energy can be less than or greater than kinetic energy. It depends on the situation! Think of a roller coaster: at the top, potential energy is high and kinetic is low, but at the bottom, it's the opposite!
Not always. It totally depends on where the object is and how fast it's moving.
