4 0

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.
