A student is trying to identify the different forms of energy described in the following chart:
Form of Energy
Description
Examples
Energy A
energy that travels in waves through space
light
radio waves
Energy B
energy that depends on the height of an object
a person at the top of a mountain
a book lifted above ground
Energy C
vibration or disturbance of matter through waves
vibrations from vocal chords
vibrations from stereo speakers
Energy D
potential and kinetic energy are the basic types
describes how much work an object can do
a speeding car
a pebble sitting at the top of a mountain
A. energy A: gravitational energy
energy B: chemical energy
B. energy A: nuclear energy
energy B: electrical energy
C. energy A: electromagnetic energy
energy B: sound energy
D. energy A: mechanical energy
energy B: thermal energy
my answer is A can you please check
13 answers
Energy B would not be chemical...it would be gravitational potential
but I don't see that as an answer choice,hmm
Potential energy that depends on height is called gravitational potential energy
Energy D is mechanical
Energy A is mechanical energy.
Energy B is thermal energy.
Energy A: mechanical energy
Energy B: Thermal Energy
Just took the test.
