I. Kinetic energy.

II. Chemical energy to mechanical energy

Explanation:

Energy can be defined as the ability (capacity) to do work. Some examples of the various forms of energy are mechanical energy, solar energy, wind energy, electrical energy, chemical energy, nuclear energy, etc.

Basically, the two (2) main types of energy are;

a. Gravitational potential energy (GPE): it is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

b. Kinetic energy (KE): it is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Furthermore, the mechanical energy of a physical object or body is the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy possessed by the object or body.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Mechanical energy = G.P.E + K.E

I. When a cat drops from a tree to the ground, the conversion of gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy takes place.

II. The cat runs up behind a mouse to obtain its food. After eating its prey, the conversion of chemical energy to mechanical energy takes place inside the cat's body.
