Question

A student is throwing a ball. She throws the ball up with her left hand, it passes over her head, and she catches it with her right hand. The picture shows the path of the ball. The ball is numbered at different positions. What is happening at position 2?
A.Kinetic energy increases as potential energy decreases.
B.Potential energy increases as kinetic energy decreases.

C.Kinetic energy is zero, and the potential energy is greatest.
D.Potential energy and kinetic energy both stay the same.

Answer 1

Answer:

(c) at point 2, the ball is at its highest height do its PE is max. Also at ms height, velocity is zero therefore KE is zero.
