A.
The log will require less force to move than the ball.

B.
It will be harder to move the ball a long distance.

C.
If an equal force is applied to both objects, the ball will move farther.

D.

At which point in this system does the pendulum bob demonstrate minimum potential energy?

A.
1

B.
2

C.
3

D.
4

what is the correct option?
Based on the provided information, it is not possible to determine the correct option without the image mentioned. Please provide more details or the image in order to identify the point where the pendulum bob demonstrates minimum potential energy.
it has points 1 2 3 and 4, the point is going to the left of 4 and is closer to 3
Based on the information provided, the correct option would be C. Point 3. The pendulum bob demonstrates minimum potential energy when it is at the highest point of its swing, which is typically at the extreme left or right of its swing. Since the point you described is closer to 3, it suggests that point 3 is the closest to the extreme left of its swing and therefore represents the minimum potential energy position.
