A toy consists of a small mass suspended vertically from a stretchable elastic cord. The mass is pulled down to an extension point D D\,D and released from rest. It then oscillates vertically between point D D\,D and a highest point UUU.
Assuming there is no air resistance, which of the following groups contains all the forms of energy that alternately increase and decrease during these oscillations?
Gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, and elastic potential energy
Gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy only
Elastic potential energy and kinetic energy only
Internal energy, gravitational potential energy, and kinetic energy
