Answer:Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion. If we want to accelerate an object, then we must apply a force. Applying a force requires us to do work.

As expressed by the equation, potential energy depends upon the mass and the height of the object. Any increase in these two quantities will lead to an increase in the amount of potential energy possessed by the object.

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed - only converted from one form of energy to another. This means that a system always has the same amount of energy, unless it's added from the outside.

Answer: Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion

(if it needs to be a one worded answer than just type motion)

The potential energy of an object depends on its mass and its height.

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can be neither created nor destroyed, but it can change its form.
