Question

energy transfer and kinetic energy quick check
which of the following is an example of kinetic energy transfer? (1 point)
a large snowball sitting at the top of a hill
xavier pushing brad down the snowy hill on a sled
a car parked on a steep hill
jules sitting in a chair

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. A large snowball sitting at the top of a hill has potential energy (due to its height). A car parked on a steep hill also has potential energy (due to its position). Jules sitting in a chair has no motion - related energy transfer. But when Xavier pushes Brad down the snowy hill on a sled, there is motion (kinetic energy) and energy transfer (Xavier's push gives energy to Brad on the sled, making it move).

Answer:

Xavier pushing Brad down the snowy hill on a sled.
