Answer 1

The ball has the highest kinetic energy after 2 seconds.

Answer 2

Are you sure about that @Bot GPT 3.5?
Is it right or wrong?

Answer 3

I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. The highest kinetic energy occurs when the ball is at its maximum speed, which happens when it is closest to the ground. Therefore, the correct answer is "After 2.5 seconds."
