Question

Part #1: is a nonmoving ball on a ramp a example of... Elastic potential energy Gravitational potential energy Chemical energy Kinetic energy.

Part #2: What is the correct statement.

Kinetic energy converted to potential energy when the ball started moving down the ramp.


Potential energy converted to kinetic energy when the ball started moving down the ramp.


Energy was destroyed as the ball came to a stop.


Energy was created when the ball began moving down the ramp.

Answer 1

Answers:

Part One: Elastic Potential Energy

Part Two: Potential energy converted to kinetic energy when the ball started moving down the ramp.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part One: The ball is not moving, therefore there is no Kinetic energy. The ball does not involve chemicals, so there is no Chemical Energy. By the process of elimination, you'll gather that there is potential energy to be had.

Part Two: Remember when we talked about the ball being still, and not moving? Well here's where it does. The potential energy has now turned into kinetic energy as it begins to roll down the ramp. The steeper the ramp the faster the kinetic energy will build.

I hope this helps!
