Answer:
C)It would require more energy to change solid water into liquid water because there are more molecules in this larger piece of ice.
D. Light from the sun is reflected off the moon's surface
Answer:
The increase in potential energy of the ball is 115.82 J
Explanation:
Conceptual analysis
Potential Energy (U) is the energy of a body located at a certain height (h) above the ground and is calculated as follows:
U = m × g × h
U: Potential Energy in Joules (J)
m: mass in kg
g: acceleration due to gravity in m/s²
h: height in m
Equivalences
1 kg = 1000 g
1 ft = 0.3048 m
1 N = 1 (kg×m)/s²
1 J = N × m
Known data




Problem development
ΔU: Potential energy change
ΔU = U₂ - U₁
U₂ - U₁ = mₓgₓh₂ - mₓgₓh₁
U₂ - U₁ = mₓg(h₂ - h₁)

The increase in potential energy of the ball is 115.82 J
The exosphere is the layer of the atmosphere "Where gas molecules can be exchanged between Earth's atmosphere and outer space." Thus, the answer would be C.
