You throw a baseball horizontally, and Jill catches it. Neglect air resistance. The energy transformation that occurs during the catch is

A) kinetic E ⇒ chemical E.
B) kinetic E ⇒ thermal E.
C) chemical E ⇒ kinetic E.
D) thermal E ⇒ kinetic E.
E) chemical E ⇒ gravitational E.

During the catch as the ball is being released the ball gains kinetic energy during the motion. As the ball moves towards Jill a form of heat is generated when Jill catches the ball. From the law of conservation of energy which states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be transformed from one form to another
