The conservation of energy is a principle stating that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be altered from one form to another. With that said. Potential Energy would be like a Rubber band, just sitting there, nothing will happen, however when one picks it up, and stretches it between the fingers, and then lets go of it, Potential energy from the still rubber band becomes Kinetic energy as it flies through the air. 
Kinetic meaning motion. Potential meaning not moving however it has the potential for moving as I described above. Hope this helps.

Assume your mass is 60 kg. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . How much work against gravity do you do when you climb
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

W=1705.2 J

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m= 60 kg

Acceleration due to gravity ,g= 9.8 m/s²

Height ,h= 2.9 m

As we know that work done by a force given as

W = F . d

F=force

d=Displacement

W=work done by force

Now by putting the values

F= m g (Acting downward  )

d= h  (Upward)

W= m g h    ( work done against the force)

W= 60 x 9.8 x 2.9 J

W=1705.2 J

Therefore the answer will be 1705.2 J.

Why might a balloon, that is inflated almost to its capacity, pop or explode on an extremely warm day?
REY [17]
On an extremely warm day, the balloon might pop because gases expand the hotter they get, and due to its temperature it is likely to pop if it is, indeed, nearly, if not completely, filled to its capacity.  I hope this helps, have a nice day!
