Visual science, energy (21/40) Many substances contain two kinds of energy water is no different. The first kind is kinetic energy, this is energy that is utilized during the execution of processes like movement. Kinetic energy allows for waves to exist and permits the flow of water, but water can also harbor a second type of energy potential energy, this is energy stored in the water, contained, this pool of energy is accessed when water starts to flow, it's transferred to kinetic energy and causes the movement.
