Question

the energy of motion is known as
a kinetic energy
b magnetic energy
c heat energy
d potential energy

Explanation:

To solve this, we recall the definitions of each energy type:

• Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion.
• Magnetic energy is related to magnetic fields and forces, not motion in general.
• Heat energy is the energy associated with the temperature of a substance, related to the motion of particles but not the motion of an object as a whole.
• Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or state, not motion.

So the energy of motion is kinetic energy.

Answer:

a. kinetic energy
