Question

Kato is out camping with his family, and they decide to start a campfire because of the cold air. After everyone roasts marshmallows to a crispy golden brown, they eat them, and then they decide to go to sleep. Before going to sleep, Kato pours water over the campfire to put it out. He notices that steam drifts from the burned wood and ashes even though the fire is gone and the coals have stopped glowing. Which statements best describe how energy is conserved in this scenario? Select all that apply.

Answer 1

Answer:

"steam drifts from the burned wood and ashes even though the fire is gone and the coals have stopped glowing".

Explanation:

Since, "steam drifts from the burned wood and ashes even though the fire is gone and the coals have stopped glowing" is the best statement of describing the conservation of energy.

Here initially wood is burning to produce heat energy, when kato pours water in to the fire, the fire stops but the heat energy which is stored in the wood is converted to stem with the help of water , so, this proves that energy remains conserved.
