Question

Kendra loves rolling down hills. She finds a steep hill to roll down. As she is rolling, when is her kinetic energy most likely the highest?(1 point)

Responses

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

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

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

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

Answer 2

The most likely answer is "at the bottom of the hill right before she stops rolling." At this point, Kendra would have reached her maximum speed due to gravitational potential energy being converted to kinetic energy as she rolls downhill.
