Is the expression "The bigger they are, the harder they fall" a generally true statement since, in the absence of air resistance, all objects fall with the same acceleration due to gravity? Pick the most correct answer. A. Yes, because as a heavier man falls, he comes closer to the center of the earth and he falls faster. B. No, since the acceleration is the same, each man will be affected the same by it as he falls. C. Yes, since F = ma, therefore "a" will be the same in each case, but the mass of each will be different. D. Yes, since F = ma, the heavier an object is, the more it will accelerate and therefore fall with more force.

C

energy: A. push or pull B. energy rating with respect to time C. ability to do work

C. ability to do work

True or False: Examples of energy transfers include collisions in chemical and nuclear reactions.

True

True or False: The earth can be considered a heat engine because it receives heat from the sun and converts it into mechanical energy to produce winds and evaporate water.

True

True or False: The total energy of the universe remains constant.

True
