PLEASE ANSWER, I HAVE 5 MINUTES Discuss the changes in potential energy, kinetic energy, and total energy for a
skateboarder going up and down on a half-pipe (U-shaped) ramp. Specifically address
the energies when the skater is at the highest point (A), half-way down the ramp (B),
and at the lowest point (C).

I HAD THE SAME QUESTION AND SEARCHED IT UP AND GOT THE ANSWERS.

Explanation:

  distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

  slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

  comparing both the equations

    change in value of y -axis = change in position

  change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

when jerome paddle in flowing river towards east the net speed of jerome will increase

so the net speed of jerome will be given as

now the speed of paul will be same as it is given as he is running on the ground

so

so here we can say since the speed of jerome is more so he will win the race

now as we know the distance so the time difference is given as

so jerome will reach first and the time difference will be 203.55 s or 3.4 min
