As a rock rolls down a hill, which types of energy are changing?

A. Light energy and gravitational potential energy
B. Kinetic energy and nuclear energy
C. Elastic energy and sound energy
D. Gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy

Respuesta :

D. Gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy


Answer:

The answer is: D. Gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy.

Explanation:

The value of the gravitational potential energy would then be given by: where m is the mass of the body and g is the acceleration of gravity.

If the body is dropped, it acquires speed and, with it, kinetic energy, while losing height and its gravitational potential energy decreases.

The answer is: D. Gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy.
