Answer:

First option, third option, fourth option, and the fifth option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kinetic energy is energy an object has when it's motion, the greater the speed the greater the kinetic energy. For example, a car moving and increasing in speed is kinetic energy since the object is in motion. If the car stops and parks in a parking lot that is potential energy. Potential energy is the amount of energy an object has when it's at rest or not in motion.

So, the answer for this question is as followed first option or "energy can be stored in the position of an object." Third option or "Energy can be stored in the position of the particles that make up a substance." Fourth option or "Energy exists as movement of the particles of a substance." The last answer will be the fifth option or "Energy is greater in faster-moving particles than in slower-moving particles."

Hope this helps.
