    The two examples of transforming potential energy to kinetic energy are changing chemical energy to thermal energy and changing nuclear energy to radiant energy

    Explanation:

    Potential energy is gained by a body at its state of rest and kinetic energy is gained by a body in motion. Here, the chemical energy is potential energy's type and thermal energy is a kinetic energy's type.

    Therefore conversion of chemical energy to thermal energy is the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy. The change of nuclear energy to radiant energy is the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy.

    b changing chemical energy to thermal energy c changing nuclear energy to radiant energy

    Explanation:

    During the conversion of the chemical to the thermal energy, the energy generated in the chemical bonds is released and this causes the surrounding molecules to move faster and thus with the increase in the thermal speed. The change of the nuclear energy is generated by splitting of the atoms into the atoms and this produces the steams and is used in turbines to produce the energy and this when converting into the electromagnetic form gets generated as the waves. Due to the motion of particles and acceleration of the mass the conversion of the potential to kinetic energy is attained.
