Helen was about to play the first
hole on a mini golf course. She
placed her golf ball on the mat in
front of her and aimed carefully
with her golf club. Then, Helen
gently tapped the ball straight
toward the hole. The ball rolled
slowly along the flat mat before
falling to the bottom of the hole.
When was the least gravitational potential
energy stored between the golf ball and
Earth? Assume that the golf ball's mass did
not change.
when the ball was farthest
from the hole
when the ball was rolling
slowly on the mat
when the ball was at the
bottom of the hole
