Which of the following best represents potential energy being converted to kinetic energy?

Ain the chemical energy in a battery is used to power a cell phone
BThe movement of wind turns a windmill that generates electricity
CA man petals a bicycle to ride across town
DI want to kick the soccer ball in scores a goal

Verified Answer :

The best correct answer is option D. Kicking a soccer ball to the goal represents potential energy being converted to kinetic energy. When the ball is still on the ground, an energy is being stored in the ball called potential. However, as soon as the ball is kicked the potential energy stored is now being converted to another form of energy associated with motion called the kinetic energy.
