Answer:

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

when the ball gets to R and S then that's when gravity starts to take over instead of kinetic energy so therefore its potential energy

Answer:

C. Maximum potential energy is at point R.

Step-by-step explanation:

Potential energy of the moving ball increase as the height of the ball increase; then, when the ball reaches its highest point in the displacement (point R) the potential energy also reaches its maximum.
