Potential energy is the energy stored into something because of its height or its position. When you freewheel on your bike down a hill you are regaining the energy that you put into the bike and your own body as you cycled or walked your bike to the top of the hill.
The spinning flywheel of an engine releases the kinetic energy which was put into it to speed it up, from the burning of fuel in its cylinders. The fuel contains chemical energy which is released when it burns.
I have not heard of a mechanical type of energy, but it could be the energy which is put into a machine or the energy which the machine can provide.
Other forms of energy are chemical energy (explosion), light energy (headlights), sound energy (radio), energy from the movement of air (windmills) or the movement of water (water wheels).

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
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.
What does potential energy and kinetic energy have to do with mechanical energy?
Potential and Kinetic Energy add up to produce mechanical energy.
Can an object have both mechanical and kinetic energy?
If an object has kinetic energy, then almost BY DEFINITION it has mechanical energy. "Mechanical energy" is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy.
Mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic and?
Kinetic energy, and potential energy.

What does potential energy and kinetic energy have to do with mechanical energy?
Potential and Kinetic Energy add up to produce mechanical energy.
Can objects mechanical energy be equal to its gravitational potential energy?
Yes. Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy; this includes gravitational potential energy.
If an object's mechanical energy is equal to potential energy how much kinetic energy does the object have?
Mechanical energy is defined as the SUM of potential energy plus kinetic energy. If all of its mechanical energy is potential energy, it follows that it has no kinetic energy.

What type of energy is kinetic and potential?
Kinetic and potential energy are types of mechanical energy.

Is mechanical energy potential or kinect?
Both kinetic energy and potential energy are mechanical energy.
What energy has to do with potential and kinetic energy?
Kinetic Energy+Potential Energy=Mechanical Energy (KE+PE=ME)
Mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic and?
Kinetic energy, and potential energy.
Is mechanical energy a from of potential energy?
actually, mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. :)
