Question

which of these is a form of kinetic (moving) energy in coal-fired power plants? piles of coal waiting to be burned water being held in holding tanks steam running through a turbine

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is energy of motion. Piles of coal (first option) and water in tanks (second option) are stationary, so they have potential energy. Steam running through a turbine is moving, so it has kinetic energy.

Answer:

C. steam running through a turbine (assuming the options are labeled A, B, C as per the order: A. piles of coal waiting to be burned, B. water being held in holding tanks, C. steam running through a turbine)
