What is kinetic energy?

• energy from motion/movement; the faster the object is, the higher this type of energy

• stored energy; energy due to the height of an object

• comes from a substance whose molecules and atoms are vibrating faster due to a rise in temperature.

• Energy that is released when a chemical reaction takes place
