An object possesses mechanical energy when it has the potential to move (potential energy) and when it is actually moving (kinetic energy). Therefore, the correct statements are:
When it has the potential to move (potential energy).
When it is moving (kinetic energy).
Mechanical energy involves both potential and kinetic components, representing the ability of an object to do work due to its position or motion.
