After sliding down, the child comes to rest just before reaching the very end of the horizontal portion of the slide. (a) How much internal energy was generated during this process? (b) Where did the generated energy go? (To the slide, to the child, to the air, or to all three?)
A)(a) 200 J; (b) to the slide
B)(a) 250 J; (b) all three
C)(a) 250 J; (b) to the air
D)(a) 200 J; (b) all three
E)(a) 220 J; (b) to the slide
