When a spring is compressed, the energy changes from kinetic to potential. which best describes what is causing this change?

work

power

gravitational energy

chemical energy

When a spring is compressed, the energy changes from kinetic to potential. This change is caused by work. By definition, work causes a change in the energy of a system. This is how many processes convert energy from one form to another - by exerting work

the answer is false. this is because for ice to melt, it requires latent heat of melting. latent heat means heat energy required to change phase without any increase in temperatures. therefore, the ice will take energy from the environment to melt hence atmospheric temperatures will reduce.
