When an object falls into sand it leaves a crater behind. Explain how the size of the crater left behind is related to the energy of the falling object.(1 point) Responses The size of the crater will be large if the energy used to move the object is small. The size of the crater will be small if the energy used to move the object is large. The size of the crater will be large if the energy used to move the object is small. The size of the crater will be small if the
energy used to move the object is large. This is because the energy of the falling object determines how deeply it will penetrate the sand upon impact. Objects with higher energy will penetrate the sand more deeply, resulting in a smaller crater, while objects with lower energy will not penetrate as deeply, resulting in a larger crater.
