Rank the slopes (greatest first) according to the work done on the skater by the gravitational force during the descent on each slope,
Homework Equations
work=change in potential energy, ie. delta U = mg*(delta)h
The Attempt at a Solution
since potential energy is greatest at slope 1, shouldn't the rank be 1,2,3? but that is wrong..what am I doing wrong in this question then?
