Question

The image shows a dam.

A large dam has point X behind it where the water level is high and point Y below it to, which the water flows.

Which descriptions best fit the labels?

X: kinetic energy
Y: potential energy
X: potential energy
Y: kinetic energy
X: mechanical energy
Y: electrical energy
X: electrical energy
Y: mechanical energy

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is X: potential energy

Y: kinetic energy

Step-by-step explanation:

The water above the dam is flowing slowly down the river, so it represents and contains potential energy. As the water flows over the dam and crashes below, it releases kinetic energy based on its motion.
