Question

which statement best describes citing evidence for the big question.
○ this video supports the law of conservation because
○ the total energy does not change.
○ as the skater moves across the halfpipe the kinetic and potential energy add up to the total energy.
○ this supports the law of conservation of energy since energy is not lost but changes from potential to kinetic energy.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy is neither created nor destroyed, only transformed between different forms like potential and kinetic energy. The last option correctly describes this transformation while citing evidence for the law. The first option just says a video supports the law without proper evidence - like what in the video. The second option only states total energy doesn't change but doesn't mention transformation. The third option just says kinetic and potential energy add up to total energy but doesn't emphasize the conservation aspect of no - energy loss during transformation.

Answer:

This supports the law of conservation of energy since energy is not lost but changes from potential to kinetic energy.
