What are the two types of mechanical energy?
Potential energy and kinetic energy. mechanical energy is the energy of motion(kinetic energy)or the potential of motion(potential energy) so i would say-kinetic and potential energy
An avalanche demonstrates what kind of energy conversion?
Gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy
What is the total kinetic energy and potential energy?
It is the sum of potential and kinetic energy.
What are the two basic types of energy?
There are two main types of energy which is kinetic and potential energy.. Kinetic energy is an energy associated with motion.. while the potential energy is an energy stored with the position of an object, or its chemical composition.
If an object's mechanical energy is equal to its potential energy how much kinetic energy does it have?
Mechanical Energy= Potential energy+ Kinetic energy, so for the mechanical energy to be equal to be potential energy, the kinetic energy must be 0.
As a planet approaches perihelion does it potential energy increase or decrease?
At perihelion, the planet is closer to the Sun, and moves faster, that means that the potential energy is at a minimum, and the kinetic energy at a maximum. The sum of kinetic + potential energy, of course, remains constant.At perihelion, the planet is closer to the Sun, and moves faster, that means that the potential energy is at a minimum, and the kinetic energy at a maximum.

Does the sun have either kinetic or potential energy?
both
What type of energy is possessed by a planet revolving around sun?
It is a combination of kinetic energy, and potential energy. Kinetic energy is related to the planet's movement; and the farther away a planet is from the Sun, the greater its potential energy.
Is sun a potential energy or kinetic energy?
No, Sun light rays are neither of these things. The light of the Sun is electromagnetic energy.
What energy does the sun have?
mechanical, potential, kinetic, nuclear and thermal

Is hydroeletric energy kinetic or potential?
Potential energy (turned into kinetic energy to drive the turbines), (turned into electrical energy by the turbines). Note the original source of this energy is the Sun (nuclear fusion).
What are the two main forms of energy?
The two main forms of energy are Kinetic energy and Potential Energy. Kinetic energy is motion energy. Potential energy is energy stored in matter.
Is a Sun light rays kinetic or potential energy?
No, Sun light rays are neither of these things. The light of the Sun is electromagnetic energy.
Where does the kinetic chemical electrical and heat energy comes from?
heat is from the sun and kinetic is transformed from potential energy and chemical energy is from weathering of nature in the crust
What process do plants use to convert kinetic energy from the sun into the potential energy of sugar?
photosynthesis
An avalanche demonstrates what kind of energy conversion?
Gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy
