Rolling (motion) is an example of Kinetic Energy.
People can improve me, but kinetic energy is the energy of motion and particles speed of a substance. So in otherwords if you had a textbook sitting on the table, it has potential energy, but if you push it off the table it then sort of has kinetic energy.
As the clay falls it has kinetic energy
it is the difference of the potential energy when the body is on the table and from the position where it is dropped.
The energy change that takes place as a cup falls off a table is the cup's potential energy decreases while the cup's kinetic energy increases.
The glass has potential energy due to its position on the table. If it were to fall, this potential energy would be converted into kinetic energy.
When a ball is held at a height, it possesses gravitational potential energy due to its position. As it falls, this potential energy is gradually converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion. This conversion occurs as the ball accelerates towards the ground due to gravity.
The book's kinetic energy was converted into heat and sound energy as it slid across the table and came to a stop. Friction between the book and the table surface caused this conversion of energy.
Mechanical potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or configuration, while kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. As an object moves, potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy, and vice versa, according to the principle of conservation of energy. Together, potential and kinetic energy make up the total mechanical energy of a system.
When the clay falls from the table to the floor, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as it moves downward due to gravity. The potential energy decreases as the clay loses height and gains speed, and this kinetic energy is then utilized upon impact with the floor.
When a ball bounces off a table, the initial potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as the ball falls towards the table. Upon impact, some of this kinetic energy is converted back into potential energy as the ball compresses slightly, before being translated back into kinetic energy as the ball bounces back up. Some energy is also lost to sound and heat during the bouncing process.
The potential energy of the ball (due to its position on the table) transforms into kinetic energy as it rolls off the table and falls. When the ball hits the floor, some of the kinetic energy transforms into elastic potential energy as the ball compresses and then rebounds. Finally, friction and air resistance gradually dissipate the ball's kinetic energy into thermal energy, causing it to stop.
