Hello!

Kinetic Energy (1/2 · mass · velocity²) arises when an object is moving, or when a force acts on it. For example, a moving car demonstrates this principle.
Potential energy (mass · height · gravity) exists when an object has the capacity to perform work. An example would be an item resting on a shelf. It possesses the potential to fall, converting its potential energy into kinetic energy.

By examining the examples from the table, we categorize them as follows:
Girl swimming laps- Kinetic energy as the girl is in motion.
Boy standing on diving board - Potential energy since the boy is still but has the potential to move.
Girl striking volleyball - Kinetic energy as the volleyball is actively moving.
Boy grasping volleyball- Potential energy since the volleyball is at rest and can potentially be set in motion.
Thus, the accurate classification is table 1.
