Question

Ball A was carried to the top of a hill in a straight line, while ball B was carried in a longer, zigzag path. At the top of the hill, both balls were left at rest. A student draws a graph that depicts each ball's final potential energy. Which statement describes the final potential energy of the balls?(1 point)
Both balls have equal potential energy.

Neither ball has any potential energy.

Ball A has more potential energy.

Ball B has more potential energy.

Answer 1

Answer: 1. Both balls have equal potential energy.

2. Potential energy would decrease, while total mechanical energy would remain constant.

3. A slide

4. Mass is eliminated when equating gravitional potential energy with kinetic energy.

5. 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2 kx^2
