As an object moves from point A to point B only two forces act on it: one force is conservative and does -70 J of work, the other force is nonconservative and does +50 J of work. Between A and B,
 a. the kinetic energy of object increases, mechanical energy increases.
  b. the kinetic energy of object decreases, mechanical energy increases.
  c. the kinetic energy of object decreases, mechanical energy decreases.
  d. the kinetic energy of object increases, mechanical energy decreases.
  e. None of the above.

Question 2

As an object moves from point A to point B only two forces act on it: one force is nonconservative and does -30 J of work, the other force is conservative and does +50 J of work. Between A and B,
 a. the kinetic energy of object increases, mechanical energy decreases.
  b. the kinetic energy of object decreases, mechanical energy decreases.
  c. the kinetic energy of object decreases, mechanical energy increases.
  d. the kinetic energy of object increases, mechanical energy increases.
  e. None of the above.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
