Answer:
D. The kinetic energy increases and the potential energy decreases. But the total energy remains the same.
Explanation:
Potential energy is the energy that every body stores naturally and that, for a certain period of time, represents the total energy of that body. However, this energy is easily transformed into other types of energy depending on the situation and the factors that current about this body, however, this transformation does not decrease the amount of total energy, in most cases. One of these cases can be seen in the question above, where David captures a ball that has potential energy stored and released from the roof of the house. As the ball moves, the potential energy turns into kinetic energy (which is the energy responsible for the movement), there is no loss of the ball's total energy, just a transformation. This transformation decreases the amount of potential to mediated energy that transforms it into kinetic energy, which increases in quantity.
Answer:
These days, aspirin is used to treat a variety of aches and pains. Its medicinal properties have been known for over three thousand years. Even Hippocrates, the Ancient Greek who is often referred to as the 'father of medicine', knew about it. Indeed, historians believe that aspirin was prescribed for headaches long before Hippocrates' time. However, it was not manufactured in its present tablet form until the end of the 19th century when a scientist working for the drugs company Bayer synthesised aspirin for the first time.
Hi. You did not provide the story that your question refers to, nor do you present the excerpt that the question asks to be analyzed. This makes it impossible for your question to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I could find another question exactly like yours, which showed that it referred to "A Christmas Memory," a short story written by Truman Capote, but unfortunately, that question also didn't show the excerpt, which prevents me from being able to present you with an exact answer. However I will try to help you as best I can.
We can see that the narrator of this story spends a lot of time with his cousin, because they spend the entire Christmas day together, doing various activities. This narrator is called Buddy and in this story he tells how he and his cousin spent Christmas day talking, flying kites, decorating the Christmas tree and baking cakes to give to strangers on the streets. These activities made them spend a lot of time together and they loved it to the point of repeating them every year.
