Option number three is correct energy can be transformed and moved and released but it can't be destroyed and doesn't disappear.
The amount of solid does not affect how you are describing the solid so a is the answer
-- The acceleration due to gravity is 32.2 ft/sec² . That means that the
speed of a falling object increases by an additional 32.2 ft/sec every second.
-- If dropped from "rest" (zero initial speed), then after falling for 4 seconds,
the object's speed is (4.0) x (32.2) = <em>128.8 ft/sec</em>.
-- 128.8 ft/sec = <em>87.8 miles per hour</em>
Now we can switch over to the metric system, where the acceleration
due to gravity is typically rounded to 9.8 meters/sec² .
-- Distance = (1/2) x (acceleration) x (time)²
D = (1/2) (9.8) x (4)² =<em> 78.4 meters</em>
-- At 32 floors per 100 meters, 78.4 meters = dropped from the <em>25th floor</em>.
The 5 points are certainly appreciated, but I do wish they were Celsius points.
Answer:
(a) gravitational potential energy converted to kinetic energy
(b) chemical energy is converted to light or heat energy
(c) mechanical energy is converted into kinetic energy
B) Not work since decrease in temperature wouldnt cause evaporation or reverse in cycle.
