Answer:
When the ball goes down its mechanical energy is conserved, ust before touching the ground all the energy is kinetic
When the ball touches the floor, energy has been converted into potential and heat, by the deformation of the ball.
Explanation:
When the ball goes down its mechanical energy is conserved, this is the power energy due to the height it is converted into kinetic energy to medicad that falls, just before touching the ground all the energy is kinetic.
When the ball touches the floor, the kinetic energy is not conserved, but if we define a system formed by the ball and the floor, the amount of movement is conserved, this being an inelastic shock, because the bla and the floor are stuck, so which energy has been converted into potential and energized and heat by the deformation of the ball.
Consequently all the mechanical energy that the ball brings before reaching the ground was converted into potential energy and heat during the crash.
