Answer:

C) is zero

Explanation:

According to the law of energy conservation, the total mechanical energy of the object is conserved. A book falling a distance d would have a change in potential energy, resulting in the same change in kinetic energy. But the total mechanical energy must be the same. So there's 0 change in total energy of the system.

A star with a large luminosity would have a relatively _____ absolute magnitude.
Mademuasel [1]
A star with large luminosity would have a relatively low absolute magnitude. Absolute magnitude is a number that tells how bright a star is from the Earth. However, this scale is backwards and logarithmic, so having a large absolute magnitude value means that the star is faint.
