Best Answer

Primarily potential energy (possibly a little bit of kinetic energy if it is swinging back and forth).

If whatever it is hanging by is severed, it will fall - transitioning from potential to kinetic energy.

What type of energy does a tree have?

The tree gets electromagnetic energy from the sun. It comes in the form of sunlight, and this causes chemical reactions in the leaves of the tree to make chemical energy.

How can weight impact energy?

It depends on the type of energy, of course.Gravitational potential energy is equal to weight multiplied by height - so you can see that it is directly proportional to weight.Some other types of energy, such as kinetic energy, heat energy, etc., depend on the mass of an object - not on its weight. But since weight is also directly proportional to the mass, you might say that if the weight increases, certain types of energy will also increase - even though the energy is not exactly the result of the weight in this case (both the weight and the energy depend on the mass).


How much energy is in an apple?

after eating an apple you consume a lot of energy if it would fall out off a tree you would consume more energy if you drop it from a small tree then it does not have as much energy as if you drop it from a big tree.
