The scientists now say that there are actually five states of matter $A, B, C, D$ and $E$. The state A has a fixed volume but no fixed shape. The state B can be compressed very easily by applying pressure and state $C$ has a fixed shape as well as a fixed volume. The state $D$ is mixture of free electrons and ions whereas state E is named after an Indian scientist and a famous physicist.

Due to heavy rains and speedy winds a tree broke and fell on the road. Two persons from local shops came and begin to remove that broken part of the tree, but in vain as the log was too heavy. A passerby came to their help with a few solid heavy sticks. Consequently, the heavy log was put aside and the commutation on the road began as usual.
(a) Comment upon the value(s) displayed by the passerby?
(b) Name the energy stored when the heavy log of the tree was lifted to some height?
