(1 point)
Responses
At point S, the total energy is half of the system’s total energy, as kinetic energy was destroyed.
At point S, the total energy is half of the system’s total energy, as kinetic energy was destroyed.
At point S, the total energy is three times the total energy of the system, as kinetic energy was increased.
At point S, the total energy is three times the total energy of the system, as kinetic energy was increased.
At point S, the total energy is double the total energy of the system, as new energy is created as the potential energy increases.
At point S, the total energy is double the total energy of the system, as new energy is created as the potential energy increases.
At point S, the total energy is equal to the total energy of the system because energy kinetic energy has been transformed to potential energy.

In a closed system (ignoring air resistance and other losses), the total mechanical energy (kinetic + potential) is conserved. As the baseball is thrown upwards, its kinetic energy decreases while its potential energy increases, but the total remains constant.
