The answer would possible be letter a
You can eliminate A, C, and D almost instantly if you know that engineers are construction workers. The answer is B.
The right option is; b. mechanical
Mechanical energy is the best description of the energy of the ball as it flies over the pitcher’s head.
Mechanical energy is the energy that an object acquires due to its position or due to its motion. From the question, the baseball player has chemical potential energy (stored as food) which is transformed into work. As the baseball player hits the ball, there is energy exchange in which the ball acquires energy to perform its work. The energy obtained by the ball upon which work is done is called mechanical energy.
Heat is energy, and that energy would eventually cause the object to undergo a phase change.
