Select the correct answer. Based on the law of conservation of energy, which statement is correct?
A. Energy is always being added to all parts of the Universe.
B. Energy is often destroyed in some parts of the Universe.
C. Energy in a closed system cannot change forms.
D. Energy in an isolated system remains constant.
Answer (1)
The correct answer is Option D: Energy in an isolated system remains constant, as stated by the law of conservation of energy, which affirms that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed. Other options presented misunderstand this principle by suggesting energy can be added or destroyed. Thus, in a closed system, while energy may change forms, the total amount remains unchanged. ;
