Your friend says, “chemical changes are caused by an input in energy. In physical changes, there is no transfer of energy” is your friend correct? Why or why not?

Your friend is incorrect.

Explanation: If we have an object or something that isn’t moving, (let’s say a notebook on a desk). If there is change, and the notebook moves, there is acceleration. Force = Mass times acceleration, f = m*a. There has to be a force, first of all. If you touched the notebook and moved it, some of your energy is transferred and now the notebook has kinetic energy. If our system is you and the notebook, the total energy doesn’t change. the energy is transferred, but doesn’t change. Your friend is not correct. Please give brainliest hope this helped!

the mantle

explanation:

earth is divided into three layers: the crust or the outermost layer on which we live; the underlying, middle layer - the mantle - and the core (the innermost layer of earth).
