A
Mechanical energy
B
Electrical energy
C
Potential energy
D
Kinetic energy
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: D
The energy of a moving car is primarily due to its motion.
- Kinetic energy: The energy an object possesses due to its motion.
- Mechanical energy: Sum of potential and kinetic energy. While the car possesses mechanical energy, the primary form due to motion is kinetic.
- Electrical energy: Involves the flow of electric charge, not relevant here.
- Potential energy: Stored energy due to position or condition, not motion.
