According to the law of conservation of energy, when a motorcycle uses 5500 J of chemical energy from gasoline, how much of this energy will be transformed into mechanical, sound, or heat energy? A. 1375 J B. 11,000 J C. 2750 J D. 5500 J
The answer is D. 5500 J This is because energy cannot be created or destroyed. Although not all of the energy will be converted to the mechanical that causes the motorcycle to move, all energy will be converted either mechanical, sound, or heat.
