Potential energy exists whenever an object which has mass has a position within a force field. The most everyday example of this is the position of objects in the earth's gravitational field. The potential energy of an object in this case is given by the relation: PE = mgh Kinetic Energy exists whenever an object which has mass is in motion with some velocity. Everything you see moving about has kinetic energy. The kinetic energy of an object in this case is given by the relation: KE = (1/2)mv2

I know that but I need help walking through it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so my coaster is 1cm he 7 meters

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1cm=7m

OpenStudy (kingkhan94):

When an object is stationary in a plane, (no hill or slope) then potential energy and kinetic energy are equal. Following the case, if an object is stationary at the top of a hill, it has stored energy (potential energy) due to gravitational attraction, as the force of gravity attracts the object towards the ground and once the object gets some kind of motion, all those potential energy will change to kinetic energy. **************************** Actually, the Object CAN be moving, but it is moving Parallel to its Reference Frame, and at a Constant Velocity.
