Kinetic and Potential Kinetic and Potential energyenergy

Kinetic energy is energy that is moving.

Potential energy is stored energy or energy that does not move.

Thermal energy is the kinetic energy of the movement of atoms and molecules.

Difference between Difference between temperature and heattemperature and heat

Temperature is the measurement of hotness or coldness in an object or substance.

Heat is the quality of a high temperature in different materials.

ConductionConduction

Conduction is the process of electricity transmitted directly through a substance.

ConvectionConvection

Convection is the heat that is transferred through a liquid or gas which is caused by molecules moving.

RadiationRadiation

Radiation is energy transferred in the form of high speed particles and electromagnetic waves.

I learned that temperature is the average kinetic energy in an object.

I learned that conduction is traveled through direct contact.

I learned that thermal energy is the kinetic energy of the movement of molecules and atoms.

I wonder if heat can affect potential energy.

I think energy is the power of electricity.

How does static electricity affect us?

Does energy travel through water?
