Suppose you kick a soccer ball straight up to a height of 10 meters. which of the following is true about the gravitational potential energy of the ball during its flight?
a) the ball's gravitational potential energy is greatest at the instant when the ball is at its highest point.
b) the ball's gravitational potential energy is always the same.
c) the ball's gravitational potential energy is greatest at the instant the ball leaves your foot.
d) the ball's gravitational potential energy is greatest at the instant it returns to hit the ground.

A) The ball's gravitational potential energy is greatest at the instant when the ball is at its highest point.

Explanation:

Suppose you kick a soccer ball straight up to a height of 10 meters. Which of the following is true about the gravitational potential energy of the ball during its flight?

A) The ball's gravitational potential energy is greatest at the instant when the ball is at its highest point. (true)

B) The ball's gravitational potential energy is always the same. (false)

    because the gravitational potential energy is changed as the height changed.

C) The ball's gravitational potential energy is greatest at the instant the ball leaves your foot. (false)

    Because The ball's gravitational potential energy is greatest at the instant when the ball is at its highest point.

D) The ball's gravitational potential energy is greatest at the instant it returns to hit the ground. (false)

     The ball's gravitational potential energy is greatest at the instant when the ball is at its highest point. not when return to the ground

i feel your pain too because i cant find my dad and hes been missing for 17 years of my life

explanation:

he went to the supermarket with your dad

the entire statement is true and correct.  

there's no diagram, nothing is illustrated, and no question is asked.
