The teacher told Fatima that all types of energy are kinetic energy, potential energy, or both. Fatima drew this diagram to help her organize this
information. She then sorted each type of energy into its correct category: chemical, electrical, electromagnetic, mechanical, nuclear, and
thermal

categories:
(Both)
(Potential
energy)
(Kinetic
energy)

Which type of energy belongs only in the Kinetic Energy category?
A. chemical
B. electromagnetic
C. mechanical
D. thermal

Respuesta :

It’s D. Thermal , because kinetic energy belongs to thermodynamics.

Answer:

Although, your question is incomplete because the diagram you talked about cannot be found. But, the question can be answered without the diagram.

The correct answer is option (D) Thermal

Explanation:

We have majorly two types of energy which are kinetic and potential energy. But, some forms of energy can fall under the both.

Kinetic energy is the energy in motion. while potential energy is the energy at rest.

The classification is given as:

Potential Energy:  Nuclear energy, Chemical energy, Gravitational energy, Elastic energy etc.

Kinetic Energy: Thermal energy, Mechanical energy, Sound energy, Electrical energy etc.

Both Potential and Kinetic: electromagnetic
