Question

Which energy transformation occurs after a skydiver reaches terminal velocity?
O Gravitational potential energy transforms into thermal energy.
O Gravitational potential energy transforms into kinetic energy.
O Kinetic energy transforms into thermal energy.
O Kinetic energy transforms into gravitational potential energy.

Answer 1

Answer::

*Gravitational potential energy transforms into thermal energy.*

Answer 2

O Gravitational potential energy transforms into kinetic energy.

O Gravitational potential energy transforms into thermal energy.

• When a skydiver jumps out of a plane, the following energy transfers take place: the skydiver's gravitational potential energy decreases as his altitude decreases and his kinetic energy store increases as his speed increases.
• When a skydiver jumps out of a plane, the following energy transfers take place:

1. the skydiver's kinetic energy store increases as their speed increases.
2. the thermal store of the air and the skydiver increases, as there is friction between the skydiver and the air particles.

In this case, both options A and B are correct.
