Question

The red spots in the question  refer to the picture below it. 

**Question 10:**

Write the name of energies on the red spots as shown in the figure. Can you apply the law of conservation of energy and momentum to the system shown in the figure?

**Explanation of the Figure:**

The diagram features a series of hills and valleys where a small red cart is positioned at the left peak. Several red dots are distributed along the path at various points of potential and kinetic energy changes. The path indicates how the energy of the cart shifts between potential energy at the high points and kinetic energy at the low points. The law of conservation of energy can be applied, as the energy of the system transitions back and forth between these two forms, assuming no energy is lost to friction or air resistance.
