kinetic energy

C. An addition of 200 J of kinetic energy and a loss of 250 J of

thermal energy

Answer:

Correct option is (a)

Explanation:

According to conservation of energy: Total energy of system remains conserved or we can say total energy = constant

(a) 400J of GPE is added and 250J of thermal energy is lost

⇒ Total energy = 400-250 J  = 150 J

hence, 150J energy is increased

(b) 100J of thermal energy is added and 450J of kinetic energy is lost

⇒ Total energy = 100-450 J  = -350 J

hence, 350J energy is decreased or lost by system

(c)200J of kinetic energy is added and 250J of thermal energy is lost

⇒ Total energy = 200-250 J  = -50 J

hence, 50J energy is decreased or lost by system

(d)300J of thermal energy is added and 450J of kinetic energy is lost

⇒ Total energy = 300-450 J  = -150 J

hence, 150J energy is decreased or lost by system

Therefore, correct option is (a)
