- AKinetic energy is maximum
- BPotential energy is minimum
- ✓Kinetic energy is minimum
- DTotal energy is maximum
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Kinetic energy is minimum
c
(c) At the highest point of the path. Potential energy is maximum, so the kinetic energy will be minimum.
(c) At the highest point of the path. Potential energy is maximum, so the kinetic energy will be minimum.
