Mechanical Energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position and its motion.
Potential Energy is the energy of a system due to its position or shape and represents the work done by an external agent in bringing the system to that position or shape.
Kinetic Energy is the energy an object possesses because of its motion.
There are two major kinds of potential energy:

If the system in question is in contact with its surroundings at a different temperature then there will be a transfer of heat, Q.
If there is no contact or no temperature difference, then Q = 0.
For a single particle of mass m following equation is true.
