Solution

The correct options are
A
Potential energy

B
Kinetic energy

Mechanical energy is the sum of energy that is possesed by an object due to its motion and due to its position.
The two forms of mechanical energy are:

1. Potential energy: The energy possessed by a body due to its position is the potential energy.

2. Kinetic energy: The energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion is the kinetic energy.
