An arrow is fired at a target on a high wall. How does the energy change between the moment the arrow is fired and the moment it hits the target?

o The potential energy and kinetic energy remain the same.
o The potential energy decreases as kinetic energy increases.
o The kinetic energy decreases as potential energy increases.
o The kinetic energy remains at zero, but potential energy increases.

Respuesta :

The kinetic energy decreases as potential energy increases. Hence, option C is correct.

What is potential energy?

Potential energy is stored energy that depends upon the relative position of various parts of a system.

As the target is fired high on the wall, the change in the energy that is observed as the arrow moves toward the target is kinetic energy starts to decrease as the arrow reaches nearer to the target and the potential energy is observed to increase.

So, in short, the energy transformation is from kinetic energy from a moving arrow to potential energy when the arrow hits the target.
