Question

The maximum kinetic energy of a box sliding from the top of a ramp to the bottom is A) at the top. B) at the bottom. C) at the exact middle of the ramp D) stored equally within the box at all locations.

Answer 1

b

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Kinetic energy of an object can be expressed in terms of its mass m and velocity v as:

KE = 1/2 * m* v²

Thus higher the velocity, greater will be the Kinetic energy. Now, as the box moves along a ramp from top to bottom, its velocity increases and so does the KE. Hence, kinetic energy is maximum at the bottom

Ans B) at the bottom
