Identify the form of energy that matches each example.

energy from electromagnetic waves:
a. thermal energy
b. chemical energy
c. radiant energy

energy caused by changes in the structure of a nucleus:
a. kinetic energy
b. nuclear energy
c. potential energy

energy resulting from movement and vibration of molecules:
a. radiant energy
b. thermal energy
c. kinetic energy

energy an object has because of its position:
a. potential energy
b. mechanical energy
c. kinetic energy

First, question 1 is radiant energy.

Question 2 is nuclear energy

Question 3 is thermal energy

Question 4 is potential energy

Explanation Radiation ( or radiant energy) is high-energy electromagnetic waves. Nuclear energy such as nuclear fusion or fission can change the structure of a nucleus therefore lowering the atomic mass. When molecules vibrate, they produce a lot of energy through friction. That energy is converted into heat. An object that is not in motion but it's position can be altered to be in motion contains potential energy. Once the object gets moving, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
