You run straight off a high diving board at a speed of 6 m/sec. you hit the water 2 seconds later.
a. how far did you travel horizontally during the 2 seconds?
b. how far did you travel vertically during the 2 seconds?
c. how fast were you moving horizontally when you hit the water?
d. how fast were you moving vertically when you hit the water?

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.
