Q: What is the type of energy that involves movement?


Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

All of the examples of potential energy described above involve movement or the potential to move. The form of energy that involves movement is called mechanical energy. Other forms of energy also involve potential energy, including chemical energy and nuclear energy. Chemical energy is stored in the bonds between the atoms of compounds. For example, food and batteries both contain chemical energy. Nuclear energy is stored in the nuclei of atoms because of the strong forces that hold the nucleus together. Nuclei of radioactive elements such as uranium are unstable, so they break apart and release the stored energy.

 Choices:

- molecular energy

- thermal energy

- light energy

- mechanical energy


A:
mechanical energy
