Whenever an object is falling, its potential energy
is decreasing and its kinetic energy is increasing.

Olivia's potential energy is decreasing and her kinetic energy
is increasing as she moves toward the right side of the picture,
all the way from W, through X, to the bottom of the arc.

Answer: W

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is due to motion of a body.

K.E. = 0.5 m v²

Potential energy is due to position of the body. In this case it is determined by the height.

P.E. = m g h

At the highest point potential energy is maximum. As the Olivia swings down, potential energy converts to kinetic energy. Thus, at point W, potential energy is decreasing and kinetic energy is increasing. Kinetic energy would be maximum at lowest point.

The drawing shows a skateboarder moving at 4.8 m/s along a horizontal section of a track that is slanted upward by 48° above the
Anna11 [10]
Let M = mass of the skier, 
v2 = his speed at the end of the track. 
By conservation of energy, 
1/2 Mv^2 = 1/2 Mv2^2 + Mgh 
Dividing by M, 
1/2 v^2 = 1/2 v2^2 + gh
 Multiplying by 2, 
v^2 = v2^2 + 2gh 
Or v2^2 = v^2 - 2gh 
Or v2^2 = 4.8^2 - 2 * 9.8 * 0.46 
Or v2^2 = 23.04 - 9.016 
Or v2^2 = 14.024 m^2/s^2-----------------------------(1) 
In projectile motion, launch speed = v2 
and launch angle theta = 48 deg 
Maximum height 
H = v2^2 sin^2(theta)/(2g) 
Substituting theta = 48 deg and value of v2^2 from (1),
 H = 14.024 * sin^2(48 deg)/(2 * 9.8) 
Or H = 14.024 * 0.7431^2/19.6 
Or H = 14.024 * 0.5523/19.6 
Or H = 0.395 m = 0.4 m after rounding off 
Ans: 0.4 m

The answer in this question is 0.4 m
