Question

What happens to the potential energy of an object when it is falls from a height?

Answer 1

A. It is lost.
B. It is converted into another form, mainly thermal energy.
C. It is converted into another form, mainly kinetic energy.
D. It stays in the object.

Answer 2

energy is never lost. it converts to different form. So A is wrong. As it is falling , the potential energy is getting converted to kinetic energy. But once it hit the ground, it end up becoming all thermal

Answer 3

okay, so im gonna go with B

Answer 4

yes, I am kind of between b and C

as it is falling --> C
when it hit the ground--> B
