A pot of hot water has this type of energy
A
potential energy
B
thermal energy
C
sound energy
D
electrical energy
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -This transfer of thermal energy from the stove to the pot and to the water is referred to as heat.

Detailed explanation-2: -Increasing the temperature of something makes these molecules and atoms move around more quickly, giving it more thermal energy. Hot water has more thermal energy than cold water. Colder objects’ molecules and atoms move more slowly and have less thermal energy than warmer objects.

Detailed explanation-3: -Heating a pot of water on a burner is an example of convection. Heat transfers to water molecules at the bottom of the pot through conduction. These molecules start moving faster.
