Question

A rock falls from a ledge to the ground. What energy conversion occurs

during this process?
Question 2 options:

Kinetic energy is converted into potential energy.


Chemical energy is converted into mechanical energy.


Potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.


Thermal energy is converted into mechanical energy.

(i think its A but im not sure)

Answer 1

Potential energy converts to kinetic.

Step-by-step explanation:

When it falls it fell due to potential energy, it hitting the ground and making an impact is not a potential, it's bound to happen if anything falls, so it'd be labeled kinetic energy.
