Which type of energy is represented here? a. thermal b. chemical potential c. mechanical d. electromagnetic

Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The chemical energy stored in the bonds of a substance is known as chemical potential energy.

As potential energy is the energy obtained by the position of an object. So, in chemical bonds also energy is present at a particular position. Hence, the name chemical potential energy is given to it.

Thermal energy is defined as the internal energy of an object because of the kinetic energy present within the molecules of the object.

When sum of both potential and kinetic energy is taken together then the energy formed is known as mechanical energy.

So, in the given picture, match-stick is located at a particular position. Therefore, it has chemical potential energy.

Thus, we can conclude that chemical potential energy is represented here.

can you list the answers so i can answer
