(a) A iron block with a mass of 6.9 kg initially slides over a rough horizontal surface with a speed of 9.0 m/s. Friction slows the block to rest. While slowing to rest, 85.0% of the kinetic energy of the block is absorbed by the block itself as internal energy. What is the temperature increase of the block? (Enter your answer in degrees Celsius.)  ?°C (b) What happens to the remaining energy?  It is absorbed by the horizontal surface on which the block slides.  It vanishes from the universe.      It becomes chemical energy.  It is so minute that it doesn't factor into the equation.

Conservation of Energy

In physics, the rule of the conservation of energy states that energy doesn’t disappear from the atmosphere; instead, it changes its form from one type to another. Energy is one of the most important physical quantities in nature, and it cannot be created or destroyed — only transformed.
