Pt Juan argues that when you burn coal, you use up the coal, and hence you use up all of its energy, and this results in a net loss of energy in the universe. How
could you fix Juan's argument? The total energy in the universe remains constant because
A. the chemical energy in the coal is converted into thermal energy
B. the kinetic energy in the coal is converted into potential energy
C. the elastic potential energy in the coal is converted into thermal energy
D. the gravitational potential energy in the coal is converted into elastic potential energy
