Answer to Question #94563 in Physics for Faris Halim

Question

As an object slides down a slope, its.
Option A. kinetic energy increases and its potential energy increases.
Option B. kinetic energy increases and its potential energy decreases.
Option C. kinetic energy decreases and its potential energy increases.

Answer 1

As an object slides down a slope, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.

As a result, the kinetic energy of the object increases and its potential energy decreases.

Therefore, Option B is the correct answer.
