I was wondering 🤔 one day and came up to a question 'where does all the energy goes?' For e.g. I hit a football so in that scenario I transfer my energy to the ball, now the ball strikes the ground, my first doubt is 'so where is the energy now? Is it in the ball or has the energy transfered to the ground. If the energy transfered into the ground then how much energy ground can store because then there will be humongous amount of energy transformation through football on the ground. Or if the ball stores the energy, so when other person also hit it then at what limit can the ball hold the energy'. I'm genuinely confused. I might be missing some basic concepts in this problem, but it would be definitely great to interact with fellow science geeks
