1. Which label should be used to describe the energy of the hammer in the first position?

Ugh idk if this is Geography bc I’m in the 6th grade but this is science so idk

A. is the answer

Explanation:

The hammer in the first position is raised and ready to hit the nail on the head. This is called potential energy. It has a lot of energy stored inside of it but it won't get used until we allow it to hit the nail. That is why it is not kinetic energy but only potential. Think of it just as when we say something has the potential to do something.
