A kite stuck in a tree has D. Potential Energy. Kinetic means physically or moving. Thermal has to deal with the heat. And chemical has to do with a chemical energy or process. Potential means not moving or staying still.

Potential energy is the correct answer since it's stuck but has the potential to create energy
