A basketball is rolling down a hill. When you start watching it, it has a total energy of -11 Joules. When it reaches the bottom of the hill, it has a vertical position of -6 meters. If the basketball weighs 0.6 kg, what is the kinetic energy in units of Joules of the basketball when it reaches the bottom of the hill? Assume the system is closed and the effects of friction are negligible. Recall that g = 10m. s2
