Answer: C. Kinetic energy</h2>
Explanation:
Heat is energy in transit, in fact it is a transfer of thermal energy from one body to another.
So, when a metal is heated is because we have two bodies with different temperatures and thermal energy is transferred from one body to another, implying a high speed and kinetic energy in the particles involved (electrons in this case).
This is because the kinetic energy of a particle is that energy it possesses due to its movement, and according to the first principle of thermodynamics, there is a relationship between heat and movement, since the metal is composed of particles that are in motion (to a certain extent).
In this way, with the increase of the temperature of the metal, there is an increase of the kinetic energy of its free electrons with a gain of velocity (movement), therefore a gain in kinetic energy.
Answer:
The energy stored in the solenoid is 7.078 x 10⁻⁵ J
Explanation:
Given;
diameter of the solenoid, d = 2.80 cm
radius of the solenoid, r = d/2 = 1.4 cm
length of the solenoid, L = 14 cm = 0.14 m
number of turns, N = 200 turns
current in the solenoid, I = 0.8 A
The cross sectional area of the solenoid is given as;

The inductance of the solenoid is given by;

The energy stored in the solenoid is given by;
E = ¹/₂LI²
E = ¹/₂(2.212 x 10⁻⁴)(0.8)²
E = 7.078 x 10⁻⁵ J
Therefore, the energy stored in the solenoid is 7.078 x 10⁻⁵ J
I can say that the kinetic energy after the collision is less than it was before the collision. I can say this with confidence because you've said that some energy was used to deform the car, plus there was energy lost from the system in the form of heat.
Scientific knowledge is built as people come up with hypotheses and theories, repeatedly check them against observations of the natural world and continue to refine those explanations based on new ideas and observations.
