To explain the transfer of kinetic energy using a hockey puck, the following statements apply:
1. **Kinetic energy can move from one item to another.** - This is true; when a hockey puck is struck, it gains kinetic energy from the stick and can transfer that energy to another puck or to the ice as it slides.
The other statements do not accurately describe the transfer of kinetic energy in the context of a hockey puck. Kinetic energy does not "transfer through air when materials are close" in the sense typically intended (such as through direct contact), and while energy can be lost due to friction when transferring between surfaces, it's not accurate to frame that as just "loss" without context.
So, the correct response is:
- Kinetic energy can move from one item to another.
