8. In explosives, potential energy is generally stored in the form of
a thermal energy
b. electromagnetic energy
c. nuclear energy
d. chemical energy

In explosives,potential energy is in the stored form of chemical energy.

answer would be letter choice (a),   a ball resting on a shelf. would be another example of potential energy   >   stored energy > not moving.

a ball spinning on a finger   >   kinetic energy > moving energy

a ball rolling on the ground   >   kinetic energy   > moving energy

a   ball flying through the air   > kinetic energy   >   moving energy

hope that                                         : )

d. platinum would have the greatest temperature increase because it has the lowest specific heat.
