Which statements describe kinetic and potential energy? Check all that apply.Energy can be stored in the position of an object.Energy is not present in a moving object.Energy can be stored in the position of the particles that make up a substance.Energy exists as movement of the particles of a substance. Energy is greater in faster-moving particles than in slower-moving particles.Energy is lower in objects with greater mass than in objects with less mass.

Potential energy can be stored because of an object's position, and energy can also be stored in the positions of particles within a substance. Kinetic energy is energy of motion: moving particles have it, and faster-moving particles have more kinetic energy than slower-moving particles. So statements A, C, D, and E describe kinetic or potential energy. Statement B is false because moving objects do have kinetic energy, and F is false because greater mass does not mean less energy when other conditions, such as speed, are the same.
