Best Answer

it is the energy acquired by the object upon which work is done

OR

energy an object has because of its motion or position

OR

the sum of kinetic and potential energy present at the same time

Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy present in the components of a mechanical system. It is the energy associated with the motion and position of an object.

All energy can be expressed in Joules (including thermal energy). Mechanical energy is the result of a mechanical force, expressed in Newtons, multiplied by a distance in meters.

Movement

The form of energy associated with the motion, position, or shape of an objects is called mechanical energy.

Mechanical energy is defined as the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. It is the energy associated with the motion and position of an object. Many other types of energy can easily be converted into mechanical energy and vise versa.
