Answer
Particles 2 and 4 have the same amount of energy
Work Step by Step
We are asked to identify the two particles with the same total amount of energy. Based on the triangle of Fig 37-14, we know that the length of the hypotenuse of each triangle represents the total amount of energy, In the problem, the book stated that the slanted lines at particle 2 and particle 4 have the same length, and so they will have the same amount of total energy.
