Mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy of some object. So any object in motion, has potential to be in motion, or has both has mechanical energy. Your car in motion has kinetic energy and potential for more kinetic energy in the gasoline that it runs on. So your car has mechanical energy. Or you up on the three-meter diving board at the pool have potential for kinetic energy when you take a swan dive off that board. You have mechanical energy there. But, bottom line, pretty much any object that is either in motion or can be put into motion has a form of mechanical energy.
potential energy
Potential energy
Gravitational potential energy being converted to kinetic energy
Energy an object has because of its motion or position. A combination of kinetic and potential energy resulting from the force of gravity and/or the movement or release of a machine component, such as a spring, clamp, or wheel. The total mechanical energy is the sum of the potential and the kinetic energy.
chemical energy
Potential energy is the energy contained in the position of an object, so object hanging on a tree would be potential energy.
It is higher from ground thus it contain potential energy.
Gravitational potential energy
Potential
The picture hanging on a wall has potential energy due to its position above the ground. When the picture is lifted higher, its potential energy increases, and when it is lowered, the potential energy decreases.
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.

potential energy
A picture hanging on the wall has potential energy. If it comes loose, it will fall, converting the potential energy to kinetic energy.
a leaf hanging on a tree
When a pendulum is hanging straight down, it has potential energy due to its position above the equilibrium point. This potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy as the pendulum swings back and forth.
