Detailed Solution

Kinetic energy is the energy that a body possesses as a result of its motion.

KE = 12mv2

Where m =  mass of the body and v =  velocity of the body

Potential energy is the energy that a body possesses as a result of its location or structure.

When an item falls from a great height, its potential energy decreases but its kinetic energy increases.

However, the sum of the KE and PE (total energy) will stay constant according to the conservation of energy concept.
