which of the following is an example of potential energy? a flying bird a moving car water stored behind a…

Answer:

C. water stored behind a dam

Brief Explanations:

Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or state. A flying bird and a moving car have kinetic energy (energy of motion). Water flowing downstream also has kinetic energy. Water stored behind a dam has potential energy because of its elevated position. When released, this potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy (e.g., to generate electricity).
