Chapter 4.1, Problem 2MC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The body possesses both potential and kinetic energy.
Concept introduction:
Energy is defined as the capacity to do work. Energy is conserved, that is, it can neither be created, nor be destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another. There are various types of energy, such as kinetic energy, electrical energy, chemical energy, thermal energy, potential energy, nuclear energy, and many more. The total amount of energy in a system is always constant.
