Answer:
Potential energy is the latent energy in an object at rest, and is one of two forms of energy. The other form, kinetic energy, is the energy expressed by an object in motion.
We know that,
- [tex] \boxed{ \boxed{kinetic \: \: energy = \dfrac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} }}[/tex]
where, v = velocity of the object.
but if the object isn't moving then velocity = 0
- [tex]kinetic \: \: energy = \dfrac{1}{2} \times m \times 0[/tex]
- [tex]kinetic \: \: energy = 0[/tex]
