Question 1 options:

only kinetic energy

only potential energy

both potential energy because it still has a distance to move before it hits the ground and kinetic energy because it is moving

both kinetic energy because it still has a distance to move before it hits the ground and potential energy because it is moving

Answer 1

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. A ball falling through the air has both potential energy because it still has a distance to move before it hits the ground and kinetic energy because it is moving. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
