Question

Which best describes what happens during a typical energy conversion?

A. Some energy is destroyed.
B. Some energy is created.
C. The total amount of all forms of energy stays the same.
D. Some mass changes into energy, and some energy changes into
mass.

Answer 1

The best answer for your question would be C. The total amount of all forms of energy stays the same.

First, let's eliminate the wrong choices. According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, you cannot create nor destroy energy, so you can eliminate choices A and B.

Also according to the Law of Conservation of Energy, the total amount of energy will always be the same. It may transform into different forms of energy.

To me, D doesn't sound very correct. For this one you can take an aducational guess, but I do not believe it would be D.

Hope this helps; have a great day!
