... Answer: This one is tricky. The hoop goes faster at the top. Both hoop and puck have the same KEtrans = (1/2)mv2, but , in addition, the hoop has some KErot. In going up the hill, both hoop and puck lose the same amount of KE (KE = –mgh). But for the puck, all of its lost KE was translational KE. W ...
