Question
The model below represents a rocket in flight.
What would be the best use of this model by a scientist?
a
to model the transition between the kinetic and potential energy of the rocket
b
to model the idea of zero gravity, as the rocket is not affected by gravity
c
to model one-directional forces, as the rocket is affected by only one force
d
to model the effects of wind resistance on the rockets' descent to the ground

The best use of this model by a scientist would be:
**a** to model the transition between the kinetic and potential energy of the rocket.
This option is appropriate because analyzing a rocket in flight often involves understanding the conversion between kinetic energy (energy of motion) and potential energy (stored energy due to its position) as it ascends and descends.
