Which of the following is a form of mechanical energy?

A. Chemical energy

B. Kinetic energy

C. Nuclear energy

D. Thermal energy

Kinetic energy is a form of mechanical energy.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is the work done by the object which is related in terms of its motion. Potential and kinetic energy are the two types of energy used to define the energy of the object in rest and in motion.

At rest, potential energy of the object will be high and at motion kinetic energy will be high. Hence Option A, B and D are invalid.

Answer: B. Kinetic energy
