Question
What is the difference between K.E. and P.E.?
✓

Answer

P.E. is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position, shape or configuration but K.E. is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its velocity or motion.
E.g. A ball kept on a cliff possesses P.E. but as soon as it is kicked it possesses K.E.
