Answer:
A: A boulder that is falling after being pushed off a cliff.
C: A pebble in a slingshot before it has been shot.
Explanation:
These are examples of potential energy because they are holding energy before it is released.
Hope this helps
Answer:
Your two answers would be 'An iron nail as it moves towards a magnet' and 'A pebble in a slingshot before it has been shot'.
Explanation:
Potential energy is energy stored for when the kinetic energy needs to be released. Kinetic energy is released when objects are in full motion.
Options A and D (The boulder one and the pebble traveling as it is shot) imply that the objects are moving and already using kinetic energy. Therefore, the other two options B and D, stated in the answer box, make the most sense.
