I rechecked and you are correct.DrClaude said:Have you calculated the result? Because I get an answer that is compatible with the answer key.
Edit: Thinking back, I'd double-dipped on the 20J of initial potential energy, both adding it to the initial total energy and subtracting it from the potential barrier left to overcome, leaving just enough energy to make it past.
