Why is the chemical energy of a battery potential energy and not kinetic energy

1 answer:

7 0

Potential energy is stored energy that has not been used yet. kinetic energy is energy that is being used instead of being stored. batteries have stored energy that is not being used until the battery is put into a device that can convert the energy that is stored into energy that is used. in example, putting batteries into a remote puts the stored energy into use by powering the remote.
