Starting from rest on her swing at initial height $h_0$ above the ground,Saina swings forward. At the lowest point of her motion,she grabs her bag that lies on the ground. Saina continues swinging forward to reach maximum height $h_1$. She then swings backward and when reaching the lowest point of motion again,she simply lets go of the bag,which falls freely. Saina's backward swing then reaches maximum height $h_2$. Neglecting air resistance,how are the three heights related?

  • A
    $h_0 > h_1 > h_2$
  • B
    $h_0 = h_1 = h_2$
  • C
    $h_0 > h_1 = h_2$
  • D
    $h_0 = h_2 > h_1$
