Question

Water stored in a dam has energy, while water flowing in a river has energy.

• A. potential
• B. kinetic
• C. tidal
• D. thermal

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B)

The correct options are
A potential
B kinetic

The Energy possessed by a body by vitue of its position is called potential energy, while, the energy possessed by a body by vitrue of its motion is called as kinetic energy.

Water held in a dam has potential energy because of its position(altitude), while flowing water in a river possesses kinetic energy and it is dependent on the rate of its flow.
