Question

Food is consumed by a person and enables him to move his hand to lift up a ball to a certain height. The ball is released and hits the floor causing a loud sound. Which of the following is the correct step-by-step energy conversion of the ball?
(a) Chemical potential energy → gravitational potential energy → kinetic energy
(b) Chemical potential energy → kinetic energy → gravitational potential energy → kinetic energy → sound energy
(c) Elastic energy → kinetic energy → gravitational potential energy → sound energy
(d) Kinetic energy → gravitational potential energy → kinetic energy + chemical energy → sound energy
