Question #3 of 8

When a ball is rolling down a hill, _____.

kinetic energy is transferred to potential energy
potential energy is transferred to kinetic energy
potential energy and kinetic energy remain equal

1 answer

When a ball is rolling down a hill, potential energy is transferred to kinetic energy. As the ball descends, its height decreases, which reduces its potential energy, while its speed increases, resulting in an increase in kinetic energy.
