Solution

The correct option is A True
  1. Mechanical energy (ME) is the sum of kinetic energy (KE) and potential energy (PE) in an object that is used to do a particular work.
  2. In other words, it describes the energy of an object because of its motion or position, or both.
  3. M.E=K.E+P.E

Hence, the above statement is true.
