Question
When we pluck the strings of a guitar, the ________ energy of the strings get transferred to the waves.
- Kinetic energy
- Potential energy
- Sound energy
- Light energy
Hint:
The energy a body possesses due to its position relative to others, internal stresses, electrical charges, and other factors.
The correct answer is: Potential energy
- When we pluck the strings of a guitar, the potential energy of the strings get transferred to the waves.
- When the string is plucked, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
- As the string vibrates, it is oscillating back and forth between the transfer of kinetic energy and potential energy.
- So, the correct option is b.
