Problem: Calculate the potential energy for each experiment.
Given information:
- The ball rolls to a zero height at the end of the descent, so the potential energy at the end of the descent $$E_{p1} = E_{p2} = E_{p3} = 0$$.
Formulas:
- Potential energy is calculated using the formula: $$E_p = mgh$$
Calculations:
- Experiment 1:
- $$E_{p01} = mgh_{01} = \text{...}$$
- Experiment 2:
- $$E_{p02} = mgh_{02} = \text{...}$$
- Experiment 3:
- $$E_{p03} = mgh_{03} = \text{...}$$
Note: The heights ($$h_{01}, h_{02}, h_{03}$$) for the initial potential energy calculation are not provided in the image. Therefore, the potential energy calculations remain as formulas.
