a volcano has both potential and kinetic energy because when the molten rocks have no moment before the irruption ............... when the irruption is above to start, the potential energy turns into kinetic energy and irrupts ........... the lava slows down and stop ( potential energy )

DevinA volcano represents potential energy as the stored energy from the buildup of magma beneath the Earth's surface. When the volcano erupts, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the lava and ash move rapidly to the surface and release heat and explosive energy.

Where is the potential and kinetic energy in a volcano?
Potential energy is found when the lava(magma) is hardened. Kinetic energy is found when the volcano is erupting.
What are the two main groups of energy?
The two main groups of energy are kinetic energy and potential energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy is stored energy that has the potential to do work.
What energy has to do with potential and kinetic energy?
Kinetic Energy+Potential Energy=Mechanical Energy (KE+PE=ME)
Object hanging on a tree a kinetic or potential energy?
Potential energy is the energy contained in the position of an object, so object hanging on a tree would be potential energy.
Is a rock potential or kinetic energy?
It has potential energy but when it is in movement it will possess kinetic energy
