Energy, work and power — practice question

A load is hung from the lower end of a spring. A student pulls the load downward from its equilibrium position and then lets it go. The load moves up and down and finally stops. Which row states the type of energy transferred to the apparatus, and the form of energy into which this has been changed when the load has come to rest?

  • Aelastic energy in the spring; chemical energy in the spring and in the air
  • Belastic energy in the spring; thermal energy in the spring and in the air
  • Cgravitational potential energy in the load; chemical energy in the spring and in the air
  • Dgravitational potential energy in the load; thermal energy in the spring and in the air
