Two identical blocks fall a distance H. One falls directly down; the other slides down a frictionless incline. Which has the larger speed at the bottom?
 
  1.The one falling vertically
  2.The one sliding down the incline
  3.Both have the same speed
  4.Cannot be determined

Question 2

  2.T2
  3.Neither; both do zero work
  4.Neither; both do the same amount of negative work
  5.Neither; both do the same amount of positive work
  6.Impossible to determine without knowing the mass m
  7.Impossible to determine without knowing the speed v
  8.Impossible to determine without knowing the angle of T2
  9.Impossible to determine for 2 of the reasons above
