Answer:
D. It is converted into kinetic energy.
Explanation:
When a book is dropped from a desk to the floor, the potential energy of the book is converted to kinetic energy as it falls.
- Potential energy of a body is the energy due to the position of the body.
- At a particular height, the potential energy is maximum.
- A body with mass and moving with velocity will have kinetic energy
- As the book drops through the height, to conserve energy, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
Hello!
The number of 20-g ice cubes required to absorb 47 kJ from a glass of water upon melting is 7 icecubes
Why?
We are going to clear from the equation of the released heat, the mass of ice (m). The specific latent heat of fusion of ice is 336 kJ/kg:
So, 7 ice cubes are required to absorb that amount of heat from the glass of water.
Have a nice day!
