Which of the following represents a decrease in energy levels?

Hey!

Hope this helps...

When you think of decrementing levels of energy, this normally comes down to small amounts of energy moving at a slow pace...

Picture 1:

Shows a dish full with energy moving at an unknown speed -> and than -> goes to dish with a lesser amount of energy moving at slower speed.

Picture 2:

Shows a dish full with energy moving at an unknown speed -> and than -> goes to a dish with a lot lesser amount of energy, but moving very fast.

Picture 3:

Shows a dish with a lot lesser amount of energy moving at a very fast speed -> and than -> goes to a dish full of energy moving at a unknown speed.

Based upon what we know, we can infer that Picture 1 is correct, because it goes from a large amount of energy to a lesser amount of energy moving at a much slower speed.
