Name the type of energy (kinetic or potential) possessed by the following:

(a) A moving cricket ball.

(b) A stone at rest on the top of a building.

(c) A compressed spring.

(d) A moving bus.

(e) A bullet fired from a gun.

(f) Water flowing in a river.

(g) A stretched rubber band.

(a) A moving cricket ball has kinetic energy due to its state of motion.

(b) A stone at rest on the top of a building has potential energy due to its raised position.

(c) A compressed spring has potential energy due to its compressed state.

(d) A moving bus has kinetic energy due to its state of motion.

(e) A bullet fired from a gun has kinetic energy due to its state of motion.

(f) Water flowing in a river has kinetic energy due to its state of motion.

(g) A stretched rubber band has potential energy because of its stretched position.
