Question

Gabriel is performing an experiment in which he is measuring the energy and work being done by a ball rolling down a hill. Describes gabriel’s measurements?

Answer 1

Answer:

They will both be recorded in joules.

Step-by-step explanation:

They will both be recorded in joules.

As energy and work both are measured in joules. If we define work it is the force applied on an object as it moves a certain distance and Energy is the ability to do work. Both are closely related because work done on an object can cause a change in energy. Now if a ball is rolling down a hill then  there is no frictional loss then its energy will be conserved but the work done by the ball will continuously change.Therefore they will both be measured in joules.
