Homework Equations
Assuming the ramp is frictionless, Ei = Ef and thus mgh = KE ( = 1/2mv^2, which isn't really necessary here)
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm okay with all other examples except for A and C. From the answer template given, I don't think I'm allowed to let two different blocks have the same final KE, but even though C travels a shorter horizontal distance, the conservation of energy tells me they should have the same KE at the end (bc their mgh is the same)! Am I missing something here?
