A) The displacement of the ball is insignificant compared with Earth's size.
B) Mass is eliminated when equating gravitational potential energy with kinetic energy.
C) The mass of the ball is insignificant compared with the mass of Earth.
D) Mass is eliminated when equating elastic potential energy with kinetic
energy.
B) Mass is eliminated when equating gravitational potential energy with kinetic energy.
