  3. biomass,
  4. petrol,
  5. nuclear energy, etc.

Energy is classified into various types based on sustainability as renewable sources of energy and non-renewable sources of energy.

Step-by-step explanation:


p = (w)/(t) \\ where \: \: w = workdone \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: t = time \: taken


kinetic \: energy(k.e) = (1)/(2) {mv}^(2)


potential \: energy \: = \: mgh

hope it helped you...
