Answer: D.) 39,200 J
Via the equation of potential energy PE = mgh where m is mass, g is the average gravity on earth and h is the height. In this case m = 400 kg, g = 9.8, h = 10 m thus:
P.E.= 39,200 Joules

I just took the quiz and got 100% when choosing A.Conservation. Hope this helps:)
A 300-kg bear grasping a vertical tree slides down at constant velocity. The friction force between the
tree and the bear is
In fact, entropy of an isolated system never decreases (2nd law of thermodynamics), unless some external energy is provided in order to "restore" order in the system and decrease its entropy.
(note that when external energy is added to the system, it is no longer "isolated").
*This is only true if the question is referring to a certain system within the universe. If we are considering the universe itself as the system, then this option is no longer correct, because no external energy can be provided to the universe, and since the universe is an isolated system, its entropy can never decrease. If we are considering the universe itself as the system, none of the options is true.
