To evaluate the statements about energy, let’s analyze each one:
I. Kinetic energy cannot be transformed into another type of energy.
- This statement is false. Kinetic energy can be transformed into other types of energy (e.g., potential energy, thermal energy through friction).
II. Kinetic energy can be transformed into potential energy.
- This statement is true. For example, in a swinging pendulum, kinetic energy at the lowest point is converted to potential energy at the highest point.
III. Potential energy can be transformed into kinetic energy.
- This statement is also true. For instance, when an object falls, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
IV. Potential energy cannot be transformed into another type of energy.
- This statement is false. Potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy and other forms of energy.
Based on the analysis:
- Statements II and III are true.
- Statements I and IV are false.
Therefore, the correct response must include both II and III. The closest matching option is II and III only, but since that is not an option, if we consider the provided answers, II and IV only is incorrect since IV is false.
The correct answer based on your options given is I and III only is also not right since I is false.
Clarification: Since the listed options don't accurately represent the correct assessment, if only the valid assertions are considered, the statements II and III are true.
If you can either provide more details or an alternate set of responses, then it would be easier to categorize. In the absence of such data, we've concluded the correct info regarding energy dynamics.
