NG017003	The motion energy of a ball rolling back and forth in a curved track is converted to gravitational potential energy only when it is rolling uphill.	12%
NG009005	Both gravitational potential energy and motion energy are involved in an energy transformation when a book falls. As the book is falling, its gravitational potential energy decreases and its motion energy increases.	9%
