The block's gravitational potential energy doesn't change because the block's height doesn't change in this phase.
Explanation:
Option (c) is correct
- If a bullet enters the block that is held at rest, the block acquires that velocity by linear momentum conservation.
- Therefore the block changes kinetic energy and the linear momentum. When most of the kinetic energy that the bullet holds converts into energy of heat, the temperature changes too.
- However, the block's gravitational potential energy doesn't change because the block's height doesn't change in this phase.
