Two golf balls with the same mass were hit at the same time. Golf ball A went a shorter distance than golf ball B. What could be
a reason that this happened? Golf ball B experienced more friction.
Golf ball A experienced less friction.
Golf ball B was hit with a weaker force.
Golf ball A was hit with a weaker force.
Golf ball B went a larger distance than golf ball A, so we could think friction affected golf ball A rather than golf ball B. That is why the first two choices are wrong.
The strongest forced applied made golf ball B go further.
Este problema se puede resolver por medio del principio de la conservación de la energía, donde la energía potencial es igual a la energía cinética. Es decir a medida que el carrito desciende su energía potencial disminuye, pero su energía cinética aumenta.
