Question

A boy rides a sled down a steep, snow.covered hill. Which of

the following takes place during the child's ride?
a
Potential energy decreases and kinetic energy
increases.
Need a Hint?
b
Potential energy increases and kinetic energy
decreases
c Both kinetic and potential energy increase.

Answer 1

Potential energy decreases and kinetic energy increases.

Step-by-step explanation:

That was the answer on my CK12

Answer 2

a. Potential energy decreases and Kinetic energy increases

Step-by-step explanation:

Because as he comes down due to its steepness the speed of the boy or you can say his KE increases and since he comes from a high position (hill) to the lower ground his potential energy decreases simultaneously
