Question

    Total mechanical energy =

    A Kinetic energy × Potential energy Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Kinetic energy/Potential energy Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Kinetic energy + Potential energy Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Kinetic energy – Potential energy Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The total amount of mechanical energy is merely the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy. This sum is simply referred to as the total mechanical energy (abbreviated TME).
