How does it work?
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. Kinetic energy is formed through potential energy changing to kinetic energy. For example: If someone is holding an elastic band, that is potential energy. But as soon as they let it go it turns into kinetic. As you can see in the above diagram, a rider is using energy to go up the mountain. Once he reaches the top it is potential energy and when he goes down it's once again kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy is the basis of all other energies. Because, for example, wind energy
uses kinetic energy by the turbines spinning and so does tidal energy by the waves moving. Therefore, you can see that kinetic energy is very important.
