☆☆☆☆☆Kinetic energy is the energy that an object has due to its motion or movement. For instance if a car drives into a wall the energy of its movement is what destroys the wall, That energy is kinetic energy.
Note: Heat is also a form of Kinetic energy because heat is the movement (vibration energy) of atoms or molecules.
It depends on the mass of the box, the force exerted, the total displacement and the height the box was moved.
It is set in one position and cannot move.

Newton's laws of motion are about motion.

the brakes use friction to stop the car
Does speed 'effect' the gravitational potential energy of an object? No, but gravitational potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy - so the gravitational potential energy can effect the speed.
Ep = mgh
Energy Potential = mass * 9.81 (gravity) * height
Speed / Velocity is absent from that equation.
They became culturally different from one another.
