10. a battery stores ______________ energy that can be used later.

Explanation:

1.

In physics, the energy stored in an object (due to its position, shape, etc.) is defined as potential energy.

The energy associated with a moving object is known as kinetic energy, a key concept in physics related to motion.

The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed or transferred.

Answer:

potential energy
