Multiple Choice

Which of the following statements about mechanical energy is correct?

• Mechanical energy is only the sum of sound and heat energy.

• Mechanical energy is found by adding an object's potential and kinetic energy together.

• Mechanical energy is unrelated to the amount of work an object can do.
