Question
cody flicks a marble across a table, and the marble hits another marble.
what happens when the two marbles collide?
energy is transferred from one marble to the other.
both marbles create energy and transfer the energy into the table.
energy is created by one marble and then destroyed by the other
marble.
energy is created by one marble and then transferred to the other
marble.
The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed. When two marbles collide, the moving marble transfers some of its kinetic energy to the stationary one, causing the stationary marble to move. None of the options that mention creating or destroying energy are correct.
