At which point would a skateboarder have the most kinetic energy? At rest at the top of a half-pipe, just before gliding down the ramp.

At which point would a skateboarder have the most kinetic energy?

  1. At rest at the top of a half-pipe, just before gliding down the ramp.
  2. At the very bottom of the half-pipe, after gliding down.
  3. On his way back up the far side of the half-pipe
  4. His kinetic energy would be the same everywhere

The difference between work and power is that:

  1. An object must move for work to be done, but not for power to be exerted Work is always larger than power
  2. Time is not important to determine the work done, but it is for the power exerted
  3. They are exactly the same thing

  2. Both have the same amount of kinetic energy.
  3. If they fall off the desk, both will hit the floor at the same speed.
  4. B and C are both False
