Solar energy is defined as radiant energy. Radiant energy is electromagnetic energy that travels in transverse waves. There are differences in opinion on whether radiant energy is potential or kinetic energy.
It is neither. The release of solar energy is the result of chemical reactions taking place between hydrogen atoms in the sun. Hydrogen atoms bind together to make helium atoms. This is nuclear fusion. As a result, a large amount of energy is released, and that is solar energy. The answer to your question is: solar energy is chemical.
Saying that a physical object such as the Sun "is" energy is misleading. Rather, it HAS energy.The source of the Sun's energy is nuclear energy - this is a type of potential energy.
The heat energy in the Sun is a type of kinetic energy.
Initially it is potential energy and at the time of reaction, converts into chemical and then kinetic energy
It is potential energy . because heat dose not move unless you heat it up enough to turn it to a liquid.
It is thermal energy
Kinetic energy is in sunlight.
Relative to the earth, neither.
potential

mechanical, potential, kinetic, nuclear and thermal
ATP
Energy exists in many more than two states, but two are light energy and heat energy.
It will have kinetic energy from its velocity, and potential gravitational energy from how high it is above the earth. If it is still being driven by a rocket engine, these amounts of energy will be increasing. If the engine has stopped it is in free flight, and will continue to rise until reaching maximum height and minimum speed, then it will start to pick up speed as it falls. The total energy will be constant once the engine has stopped. Of course in practice air resistance has some effect, some energy will be given up to the air in frictional heating.
potential energy i think
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.

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.
No, Sun light rays are neither of these things. The light of the Sun is electromagnetic energy.
mechanical, potential, kinetic, nuclear and thermal
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
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).
The two main forms of energy are Kinetic energy and Potential Energy. Kinetic energy is motion energy. Potential energy is energy stored in matter.

Gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy
It is the sum of potential and kinetic energy.
