What is the possible or stored energy in an object called?

• Thermal Energy
• Kinetic Energy
• Chemical Energy
• Potential Energy

How does potential energy become kinetic energy?

• When something hot touches something cool, the potential energy in the hot object is turned into kinetic energy in the cool object
• When an outside force acts upon an object with potential energy, that force turns the potential energy into kinetic energy
• Potential energy becomes kinetic when an object remains in place and continues to build up more and more energy
• Potential energy has no relation to kinetic energy

• energy that is formed or caused by movement
• the movement of electrons throughout the world
• energy from the Sun or any other light source
