Which statement best defines the relationship between work and energy? Work can transfer energy between objects and increase radiant energy. Work can transfer energy between objects and cause a change in the form of energy. Work can transfer energy between objects and decrease nuclear energy. Work can transfer energy between objects and cause a change in the amount of total energy.

b) nuclear ive learned that in a pedtrodic table

answer is: nuclear fusion produces elements that are heavier than helium.

nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing energy.  

for example, fusion of hydrogen atoms at the sun.  

this fusion nuclear reaction is in the inner core of the sun and hydrogen (atomic number 1) is conveted into helium (atomic number 2).  

the inner core is the central region of the sun and all solar energy is produced in the core by nuclear fusion.
