A solid cone rolls down an incline. If its height is h, what is the relationship between its potential energy and kinetic energy at the bottom?
PE = KE
PE = 2KE
PE = 3KE
PE = 4KE
For a solid cone rolling down an incline, the potential energy at height h is converted into translational and rotational kinetic energy, leading to PE = 2KE.
