D. A physical change
The makeup of it is still the same it's just ground up
Answer:

Explanation:
We apply Newton's second law at the crate :
∑F = m*a (Formula 1)
∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)
m : mass in kilograms (kg)
a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)
Data:
m=90kg : crate mass
F= 282 N
μk =0.351 :coefficient of kinetic friction
g = 9.8 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity
Crate weight (W)
W= m*g
W= 90kg*9.8 m/s²
W= 882 N
Friction force : Ff
Ff= μk*N Formula (2)
μk: coefficient of kinetic friction
N : Normal force (N)
Problem development
We apply the formula (1)
∑Fy = m*ay , ay=0
N-W = 0
N = W
N = 882 N
We replace the data in the formula (2)
Ff= μk*N = 0.351* 882 N
Ff= 309.58 N
We apply the formula (1) in x direction:
∑Fx = m*ax , ax=0
282 N - 309.58 N = 90*a
a= (282 N - 309.58 N ) / (90)
a= - 0.306 m/s²
Kinematics of the crate
Because the crate moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formula :
vf²=v₀²+2*a*d Formula (3)
Where:
d:displacement in meters (m)
v₀: initial speed in m/s
vf: final speed in m/s
a: acceleration in m/s²
Data
v₀ = 0.850 m/s
d = 0.75 m
a= - 0.306 m/s²
We replace the data in the formula (3)
vf²=(0.850)²+(2)( - 0.306 )(0.75 )


The answer should be B. According to the conservation of energy, the energy cannot be created nor destroyed, but it can be transformed. Since the object is moving down, that means its height is decreasing, causing the potential energy decreasing and the kinetic energy increasing to fulfill the conservation law.
