A. Electrical and Kinetic
B.Nuclear and Chemical
C.Radiant and Thermal
D.Elastic and Gravitational

Please hurry im begging!

Answer:

D ) Elastic and Gravitational

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is defined as the sum of elastic, potential and kinetic energies.

Therefore potential energy and gravitational or potential energy are contemplated within the definition of mechanical energy.

[tex]E_{M} = E_{e}+E_{k}+E_{p}\\where:\\E_{M}= Mechanical Energy\\E_{e} = elastic energy\\E_{k} = kinetic energy\\E_{p}= potential energy[/tex]

The units for energy are given in joules [J] for the SI and Btu for the IP system

D. Elastic and Gravitational

I took the test and got 100%, no lie. =-]
