In the diagram below, two identical objects are released from rest at the starting position. Object 1 was released first and sometime later Object 2 was released. The diagram below shows the positions of Objects 1 and 2 a short time after both were released.
Which object in the figure has the most kinetic energy at the point shown?
A.Both objects have the same amount of kinetic energy.
The two objects are sliding down the inclined plane with same speed and their masses are same. From the formula K.E= ½mv², we can conclude they have same kinetic energy.
