- Hey what’s the answer to thisarrow_forwardThree objects of the same mass begin their motion at the same height. One object falls straight down, one slides down a low-friction inclined plane, and one swings in a circular arc on the end of a string. All three objects end at the same height. On which object does gravity do the most work? A) The object in free fall B) The object sliding down the low-friction incline C) The object traversing the circular arc D) Gravity does equal work on all three objectsarrow_forwardThe two ropes shown in the bird's-eye view of the figure are used to drag a crate 5.8 m across the floor.
