Question

A football moves rapidly as it is thrown upwards. Its motion slows as it reaches a maximum
height, and then it falls back down. What causes the upward motion to become slower?
A. The kinetic energy is converted to wind energy
B. The kinetic energy is converted to gravitational potential energy.
C. The gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
D. the gravitational potential energy is converted to light energy.

Answer 1

C hope this helps!!!!!???!!!!!!!

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer would be B. (ps. you put this in the wrong category, but it's fine)

Explanation:

This is hard to explain but I will try anyway.

The football starts of with kinetic energy, meaning that the energy is from moving, and then goes ot gravitational potential energy,  meaning that the energy is from the potential (meaning able to be used) gravitational (the pulling of gravity) energy.

I hope this helps! :)
