Which mass has the greatest PE before release? isn't it mass 3?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

yes

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

since PE = mgh

OpenStudy (fanduekisses):

oh ok what about Which mass has the greatest speed as they reach the bottom? wouldn;t it be mass 3 again?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

yep

OpenStudy (fanduekisses):

why?

OpenStudy (fanduekisses):

because of the lack of force from a slide?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

yes, nothing slows it down, right?

OpenStudy (fanduekisses):

How much work does gravity do on mass 2 on the trip to the bottom?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Define work.

OpenStudy (fanduekisses):

w= force x distance

OpenStudy (fanduekisses):

so 19.8 * 5 =98?
