Question

which image shows both potential and kinetic energy?

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Potential energy is energy due to position (e.g., height), and kinetic energy is energy of motion (velocity). The first image (pendulum at lowest point) has only kinetic (no height - max speed). The third image (pendulum at highest point) has only potential (instantaneous stop - max height). The middle image (pendulum in - between) has both: some height (potential) and some speed (kinetic).

Answer:

The middle - image (pendulum in motion, not at extreme or lowest point) shows both potential and kinetic energy.
