2 is B. 3 is D. 4 is C. I think 5 is A. 6 is A. 7 is D. I think you are all correct. Good Luck!
From the geometry of the problem, the 20 m-long cable creates
the hypotenuse of a right triangle, with the extended of the other two sides of
size 20 m * cos(30 deg), which is around 17.3 m. Therefore, the ball has increased
by 20 m - 17.3 m = 2.7 m.
The potential energy will have altered by m*g*h, which is 1400 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 *
1.6 m , or about 37044 joules.
