Which of the following best illustrates the first law of thermodynamics by Niagara Falls?

a. Water at the top of the falls has high kinetic energy; as the water moves over the waterfall, its kinetic energy is converted into potential energy; when the water reaches the bottom of the waterfall, its potential energy is transformed into other types of energy: heat, sound, and mechanical energy. b. Water at the top of the falls has high potential energy; as the water moves over the waterfall, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy; when the water reaches the bottom of the waterfall, its kinetic energy is transformed into other types of energy: heat, sound, and mechanical energy. c. Water at the top of the falls has high potential energy; as the water moves over the waterfall, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy; when the water reaches the bottom of the waterfall, its kinetic energy is transformed into potential energy again. d. Water at the top of the falls has high potential energy; as the water moves over the waterfall, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy; when the water reaches the bottom of the waterfall, its kinetic energy is lost.
