Question

Imagine you have a bucket of water sitting higher than a ladder. What type of energy would that bucket contain? If that bucket were overturned, what type of energy would the water now contain?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When the bucket of water is at a static position , i.e. , sitting high up a ladder , then the water inside the bucket would be possessing potential energy .

Now , from the second case , i.e. , where the bucket is overturned , i.e. , water flows out of the bucket , now here , the water will have kinetic energy , as it is no more static , the water is flowing .
