What could this series of pie charts represent?
A battery being charged.
A toy car being charged.
A toy car getting faster over time.
A rollercoaster moving to a stop.
According to the Law of Conservation of energy, the amount of energy before and after a reaction must be the same. Which statement below is true?
When working a problem from the beginning to the end, what does it mean when the overall pie chart (circle) stays the same size?
It means that the types of energy always stay the same
It means that the total amount of energy can change, but we are only looking at a certain amount
It means that the total amount of energy stays the same
It doesn't mean anything, that is just how we draw it
What happens to the chemical energy of a battery as it is used?
The chemical energy increases because the more they are used, the more chemical reactions are occuring
The chemical energy decreases because the energy is converted to another kind of energy
The chemical energy stays the same because the same number of batteries are being used
Chemical energy has nothing to do with batteries

It is lost.
It is created when two surfaces rub against one another.
Which answer matches the image?
