Question

Responses

potential energy at the top of the stairs; kinetic energy as she walks down
potential energy at the top of the stairs; kinetic energy as she walks down

potential energy at the top of the stairs; potential energy as she walks down
potential energy at the top of the stairs; potential energy as she walks down

kinetic energy at the top of the stairs; potential energy as she walks down
kinetic energy at the top of the stairs; potential energy as she walks down

kinetic energy at the top of the stairs; kinetic energy as she walks down

Answer 1

The correct statement is: potential energy at the top of the stairs; kinetic energy as she walks down.

Answer 2

are you 100% sure?

Answer 3

Yes, I am 100% sure. The correct statement is indeed: potential energy at the top of the stairs; kinetic energy as she walks down. When Kim is upstairs at the top of the stairs, she has potential energy due to her elevated position. As she walks down the stairs, her potential energy decreases and is converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion.
