Helen was about to play the first hole on a mini golf course. She placed her golf ball on the mat in front of her and aimed carefully with her golf club. Then, Helen gently tapped the ball straight toward the hole. The ball rolled slowly along the flat mat before falling to the bottom of the hole. When was the least gravitational potential energy stored between the golf ball and Earth? Assume that the golf ball's mass did not change. when the ball was farthest from the hole when the ball was rolling slowly on the mat when the ball was at the bottom of the hole
