, increasing the mass of the skater will increase the total potential energy at the top of the ramp, and while the total mechanical energy remains constant, the distribution between potential and kinetic energy will change as the skater moves down the ramp. reword this plss

1 answer

Increasing the skater's mass will raise the total potential energy at the top of the ramp. Although the overall mechanical energy stays the same, the balance between potential and kinetic energy will shift as the skater descends the ramp.
