Know the Answer?

Kristina Mendoza · Answer 1

I believe it would be B and C because kinetic and potential energy both go under mechanical energy, electrical and thermal energy are its own kind of energy

Anne Harris · Answer 2

B and C

Explanation:

due to its vertical position above the ground (potential energy). Kinetic energy is the energy of motion
