air resistance
What is the formula for Kinetic Energy?
KE = mass x velocity
KE= 1/2 x mass x velocity 2
KE = mass x gravity x height
KE = mass x velocity / 2
What happens when the ball goes from the highest position to the lowest position
PE and KE increases and decreases together
Impossible to know without knowing the mass of the object
the PE decreases while KE increases

at the top of its swing
at the bottom of its swing
