1. The kinetic energy would be the lowest at the highest point of the throw, when the ball is at its maximum height before falling back towards the Earth.
2. The correct statement is: Energy is converted from other forms, not created.
A person throws a ball up into the air, and the ball falls back toward Earth. At which point would the kinetic energy be the lowest? (1 point)
An object falls through the air, gaining speed as it falls. A student claims that this creates new energy, and so it breaks the law of conservation of energy. Which statement describes why the student is incorrect? (1 point)
• Equal and opposite amounts of other energy are also created.• Energy is converted from other forms, not created.Speed is not related to energy in any way.© Energy can be created without breaking the law of conservation of energy
