(1D15.20) High Road Low Road
$0.00
Both marbles start off with the same initial incline and therefore have the same initial kinetic energy. The marble on the top track rides along a horizontal path, while the lower marble has to pass through a dip before reaching the end of the track. Instinctively, people assume the upper marble will reach the end of the track first because it has less distance to travel; however, because of the additional kinetic energy the marble on the lower track gains going down the second incline, it is able to reach the end of the track first.
