<u>Answer
</u>
A. 1 and 2
<u>Explanation
</u>
At point 1 we have the highest potential energy and the kinetic energy is zero.
At 2 the potential energy is minimum and the kinetic energy is maximum.
The law of conservation of energy says that energy cannot be created nor destroyed. So, the change in P.E = Change in K.E.
P.E = height × gravity × mass. The height referred here is the perpendicular height. Gravity and mass are constant in this case.
From the diagram it can be seen clearly that the vertical height from 2 to 1 is much greater than from 4 to 3.
This shows that the change in P.E is greater between 1 and 2 and so is kinetic energy.
From the calculation, the gravitational force of attraction is 1.33 * 10^-14 N.
<h3>What is the gravitational force?</h3>
The gravitational force is an attractive force that acts between any two masses.
It is given by;
F = Gm1m2/r^2
F = 6.67 * × 10−11 * 2.5 * 5/(250)^2
F = 83.4 × 10−11 /62500
F= 1.33 * 10^-14 N
