Question

Help me pleaseee...

A 200kg piano sitting on a platform 2 m high has 3920 J off potential energy. It required 4500 J of work to push the piano up a ramp to the platform. What is the best explanation for the difference between the amount of work required to move the piano and its potential energy?
A) the piano lost mass as it was pushed up the ramp.
B) energy was destroyed moving the piano up the ramp.
C) some of the energy required to push the piano up the ramp was used to overcome friction between the piano and the ramp.
D) the work required to push the piano up a ramp is greater because the force is the same as if it were lifted, but the distance is greater when using a ramp.

Answer 1

C) some of the energy required to push the piano up the ramp was used to overcome friction between the piano and the ramp.
