Answer

Type of energy due to both position and motion of an object is called as mechanical energy.

Step-by-step explanation

The mechanical energy which is due to motion is called kinetic energy and the energy which is possessed due to position or place is called as potential energy. The mechanical energy is both the kinetic and potential energy. For example, a moving car possesses kinetic energy. A drawn bow stores energy due to its position possesses potential energy. These both possess mechanical energy.
