at the bottom of the hill just as she has stopped rolling

at the top of the hill right before she has started rolling down the hill
at the top of the hill right before she has started rolling down the hill

just after the top of the hill right as she starts rolling down the hill
just after the top of the hill right as she starts rolling down the hill

at the bottom of the hill right before she stops rolling
at the bottom of the hill right before she stops rolling

Answer 1

Kendra's kinetic energy is most likely the highest at the bottom of the hill right before she stops rolling. This is because kinetic energy is at its maximum when an object is at its highest speed, which occurs at the bottom of the hill just before she comes to a stop.
