Abin is doing work by lifting a bowling ball. which statement could be made about the energy in this situation?
it is being transferred from the ball to his arm muscles.
it is being transferred from his arm muscles to the ball.
it would be recorded in units of hertz and power.
it would be cause a change in energy from potential to chemical.

the energy is being transferred from his arm muscles to the ball.

Explanation:

1) Initially the ball has zero kinetic energy as it is at rest, and zero potential energy (it is at a lowest level).

2) By doing work on the ball, Abin changes the mechanical energy of the ball. The ball will start to move (kinetic energy) and will reach a higher position (potential energy).

3) The energy was transferred by Abin's arm muscles, which used the chemical energy stored in its cells.

explanation: it gains negative electrons, therefore becoming negatively charged. as charge cannot be created, nor destroyed, only transferred, this leaves the wool positive. now that they have opposite charges, the two items attract.

d.) the average kinetic energy of the gas particles is greater in container b because its particles move faster.
