Potential energy is energy that is stored for example a wind up toy, it has energy but in order for you to get kinetic energy, it has to move. So kinetic energy is moving energy.

The difference is that potential is stored and kinetic is moving energy.

A ring costs $36 more than a bracelet. the cost of the bracelet is 4/7 the cost of the ring. find the total of the two items.

avanturin [10]

So let's use some equations to represent the data [let R= cost of ring & B= cost of bracelet]

R= B + $ 36 .... (1)

B= $\frac{4}{7}$ × R ... (2)

By using simultaneous equations to solve for B and R.
Substitute eq. (1) into eq. (2)

B = $\frac{4}{7}$ × (B + $36)

B = $\frac{4}{7}$ B + $\frac{144}{7}$

$( \frac{7}{7} - \frac{4}{7} ) B = \frac{144}{7}$

$\frac{3}{7} B = \frac{144}{7}$

⇒ B = $48

By substituting value of B into ea (1)

If R = B + $36

R = ($48) + $36

= $84

∴ the total of the two items = R + B
= $84 + $48
 = $132
