Question

introduction to energy
which statement best defines the relationship between work and energy?
work can transfer energy between objects and decrease nuclear energy.
work can transfer energy between objects and increase radiant energy.
work can transfer energy between objects and cause a change in the form of energy.
work can transfer energy between objects and cause a change in the amount of total energy.

Explanation:

Work is a way of transferring energy between objects. It can cause a change in the form of energy (e.g., from kinetic to potential) or a change in the amount of total energy. The first two options are too specific about types of energy (nuclear and radiant), while the best - general description is that work can transfer energy between objects and cause a change in the form of energy.

Answer:

Work can transfer energy between objects and cause a change in the form of energy.
