Answer:A
Explanation:
Given
Skier A takes straight, smooth route while Skier B takes curvy, bumpy route to finish.
We know gravity is conservative in nature i.e. work done against it is independent of path followed
So work done by gravity for A and B is same
According to Work energy Theorem Change in the kinetic Energy is equal to work done by all the forces.
where h=vertical height of hill
thus
which is same for both A and B
