In one part of this unit's sample work, we tested how mass impacts kinetic energy. First, the teacher allowed one ball to roll freely down a ramp. Then, from the same height on the ramp, she allowed a ball with greater mass to roll freely down the ramp. Each ball was allowed to strike a cup at the bottom of the ramp.%0D%0A%0D%0Aa. How did mass affect the ability of each ball to move the cup?%0D%0A%0D%0A(1 point)%0D%0AResponses%0D%0A%0D%0AThe ball with the lower mass moved the cup a greater distance.%0D%0AThe ball with the lower mass moved the cup a greater distance.%0D%0A%0D%0AThe balls moved the cup the same distance.%0D%0AThe balls moved the cup the same distance.%0D%0A%0D%0AThe ball with the higher mass moved the cup a greater distance.%0D%0AThe ball with the higher mass moved the cup a greater distance.%0D%0A%0D%0AThe cup's motion was independent of the mass of the ball.%0D%0AThe cup's motion was independent of the mass of the ball.%0D%0AQuestion 2%0D%0Ab.

Overall, kinetic energy was gained.
can you give me the Anwers for a. b. and c.
a. The ball with the higher mass moved the cup a greater distance.
b. An increase in mass caused an increase in kinetic energy.
c. Some of the energy was transferred to the cup.
