Question

Energy possessed by a phone ringing on the table.

Answer 1

1. Potential energy is due to the height of an object above the ground level.
2. Thus, potential energy is the energy possessed by a body because of its position
3. So, when a phone is atop a table it is above the ground surface so the energy is potential energy stored in it.
4. As the phone is not moving so there is no kinetic energy.
