The correct answer is "energy of motion." Kinetic energy refers to the energy an object possesses due to its motion. The formula for calculating kinetic energy is KE = 1/2 * m * v^2, where m represents the mass of the object and v represents its velocity. To understand this concept, you can think of a moving car or a ball being thrown in the air. The faster the object is moving and the heavier it is, the greater its kinetic energy will be. Energy from the sun refers to solar energy, which is a different type of energy. Stored energy and conserved energy also refer to different concepts.
