Question

2. Use the diagram below to answer this question. As the ball moves from point A to C what is happening to the energy? Explain the potential energy and the kinetic energy values at point A as compared to C (Use complete sentences to answer the question).

Answer 1

Answer/Explanation:

The highest point of potential energy is A, when the ball rolls down the hill potential energy decreases and kinetic energy decreases, but the total energy is constant no matter what. This means the energy does not go away but instead is transferred to a different form.

A: most potential and least kinetic

B: losing potential gaining kinetic

C: losing more potential and gaining more kinetic

D: most kinetic and least potential

E: Gaining  potential and losing kinetic

F: Gaining more potential and losing more kinetic

G: more potential than kinetic but not the most potential

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

As the ball moves from point A to C, the ball will accelerate. This is because the ball's potential energy is being converted into kinetic energy. At point A when the ball starts moving, its potential energy is at its maximum while its kinetic energy is at its minimum (but non-zero as the ball starts to move.) At point C, the ball's potential energy is less than its maximum while its kinetic energy is now more than its minimum.
