Question 4 • GCHS Physical Science B - SC1114

A ball thrown into the air has its greatest kinetic energy as it reaches the highest point in its path.

Answer
A
T
B
F

Explanation

At the highest point, the ball’s upward speed is momentarily zero, so its kinetic energy is at its minimum—not its greatest. As the ball rises, kinetic energy changes into gravitational potential energy. The statement is false, so the correct choice is F.
