Question
potential or kinetic? apple potential kinetic
Brief Explanations
To determine if the apple has potential or kinetic energy, we recall the definitions: Potential energy is stored energy (due to position, shape, etc.), and kinetic energy is energy of motion. The apple in the image is stationary (not moving), so it has stored energy based on its position (e.g., gravitational potential energy if it's above the ground, or just stored chemical energy in its structure). Since it's not in motion, it has potential energy.
