If u push a ball down a hill how does the potential and kinetic energy of the ball chamge as it rolls down the hill
1 answer
As the ball rolls down the hill, its potential energy decreases while its kinetic energy increases. When the ball is at the top of the hill, it possesses a high amount of potential energy due to its elevated position. This potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy as the ball gains speed while rolling downhill. At the bottom of the hill, the ball has minimal potential energy but substantial kinetic energy due to its increased velocity.
