e cheese to start bubbling. You take a bite of the pizza and realize it is too hot, so you let it sit on the counter for a minute. When the pizza is finally cool enough to eat, you enjoy your lunch. Identify three examples of energy transfer in the scenario. Pick up to 3 answers.
A. Electromagnetic (microwave) energy is transferred from the refrigerator to the pizza in the refrigerator.
B. Electromagnetic (microwave) energy is transferred from the microwave to the pizza in the microwave oven.
C. Heat energy is transferred from the pizza to the room as the pizza cools on the counter.
D. Heat energy from the warm pizza is transferred from the pizza into the mouth chewing it.
E. Heat energy from the room is transferred into the pizza as it comes out of the microwave oven.
When the bowling ball is first dropped, it has a maximum potential energy but minimum kinetic energy. The height is max, so the potential energy will be greatest. Velocity is 0, so kinetic energy will be 0.
