Prime meridian - the invisible line that goes north to south at 0 degrees longitude. the prime meridian also separates the west and east hemisphere.

It has a lot of energy stored inside of it but it won't get used until we allow it to hit the nail. That is why it is not kinetic energy but only potential. Think of it just as when we say something has the potential to do something.
