To the Earth in less than ten minutes.
1). The little projectile is affected by friction all the way through the block.
Friction robs some kinetic energy.
2). The block is affected by friction as it scrapes along the top of the post.
Friction robs some kinetic energy.
3). The block is also affected by friction with the air (air resistance) as it
falls to the ground. Friction robs some kinetic energy.
I want to say its cooled by reflection because of the foil, sun reflects off of the foil back into the atmosphere. I don't think it's conduction because I have the foil on my windows and it's never warm to the touch. it's not a liquid so I don't believe it's convection. The foil reflects the radiation so I don't think it's b, c or d. so I wanna say A but I'm not 100% sure
Heat engines are less than 100% efficient because absolute zero cannot be reached
