The one listed below that's NOT an example of potential energy is mechanical energy. Mechanical energy is categorized as a kinetic energy with light, sound, and thermal/heat energy. 

Mechanical energy is not an example of potential energy, as its energy due to motion.


Potential energy is energy due to the position


1. chemical energy - potential energy

-  [energy of atoms due to its postions]

2. gravitational energy - potential energy

- [energy due to its positon]

3. mechanical energy - not potential energy but kinetic energy

4. nuclear energy - potential energy

- [ energy due to position of particles in nucleus]
