Answer:
Both balls have the same speed.
Explanation:
Janelle throws the two balls from the same height, with the same speed. Both balls will have the same potential and kinetic energy. Energy must be conserved. When the balls pass Michael, again they must have the same potential and kinetic energy.
The marbles that are 'more energetic' fall out of the tray, in the same way particles have enough energy to escape and turn into a gas.
Top of the U ramp: potential energy is the highest, while kinetic energy is the lowest
Bottom of the U ramp(aka the curve part): potential energy is the lowest and the kinetic energy is the highest
THEREFORE, PE and KE have an INVERSE RELATIONSHIP.
