Expert Answer:
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by the body by virtue of its motion. It is given by
K.E =
.
Potential energy is the energy possessed by the body by virtue of its position or height. Potential energy is given by
P.E. =
.
m = mass, g= acceleration due to gravity, h = height, v = velocity.
