Kinetic energy refers to?
Kinetic energy refers to any energy related to motion. A ball rolling up a hill for instance is expending kinetic energy.
When you roll down a hill is that mechanical energy?
No, It is kinetic energy
What type of energy destroys other energies?
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It is converted to other forms of energy. There is potential energy and kinetic energy. Sitting on your bicycle on top of the hill you have no kinetic energy, only potential energy. When you ride down the hill, the potential energy is used up (you go down the hill) and it converts to kinetic energy (speed). "What happens when you stop at the bottom of the hill - wasn't the potential and kinetic energy destroyed?" No. All the potential energy was converted to kinetic energy. The kinetic energy was converted to heat through the wind resistance. So, if you had an extremely accurate thermometer, you would see the air and bicycle temperature rise as you went down the hill.
Energy in the form of moition is?
The energy you put into something to make it move at a steady speed is called KINETIC ENERGY. It's the Kinetic Energy of a car that makes the brakes hot when you try to stop. The kinetic energy of the moving car becomes heat in the brakes of the stationary car which has lost its kinetic energy. There are two ways to get a car to the top of a hill. One is to start at the bottom and drive the car to the top and then stop again. This way, the engine pushed the car up the hill. The other way is to start a long way before the hill and build up speed along a flat road. Then you can turn off the engine and the car will coast to the top of the hill before it stops. This way, the engine put a lot of Kinetic Energy into the weight of the car before it got to the hill, and it was that Kinetic Energy which was used to get the car up the hill.
Is a car being driven up a hill and being parked kinetic energy changing to potential energy?
Is it changing from kinetic energy to potential energy
Why is a rock on the top of a hill kinetic energy?
A rock on top of a hill has potential energy, not kinetic energy. If it starts rolling down the hill then the potential energy transforms to kinetic energy.
A bicycle rider is traveling up a hill. When the rider reaches the top of the hill, she stops to rest.then she travels down the hill. Which one describes it?
When the rider is at the top of the hill, her potential energy is the greatest, and her kinetic energy is the least.
Does a stepper hill have more kinetic energy?
i think a stepper hill has more kinetic energy
Is rolling down a hill potential or kinetic energy?
Yes, because potential energy is energy stored but kinetic is energy in motion.
A rollar coaster stop at the top of the hill What can you infer about its kinetic energy?
The roller coaster does not have kinetic energy at the top of the hill
In energy transformations when a roller coaster is at the top of the hill the kinetic energy is?
Kinetic energy comes from movement. If the roller coaster is moving at the top of the hill, it has kinetic energy. if the rollercoaster isn't moving then it has potential energy.
A roller coaster going down the first hill is an example of what type of energy?
It is kinetic energy because it is in motion.Jesus loves you! A car rolling down a hill is an example of which type of energy?kinetic...Potential energy
Kinetic energy refers to?
Kinetic energy refers to any energy related to motion. A ball rolling up a hill for instance is expending kinetic energy.
How can Potential energy and Kinetic energy be observed in your everyday world?
when a car drive up a hill it gains potential energy and when it comes down the hill it gains kinetic energy.
Is rolling down a grassy hill potential or kinetic energy?
The act of rolling is showing kinetic energy because it is movement, but we should always look at energy change. As you go down hill, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
When you roll down a hill is that mechanical energy?
No, It is kinetic energy
What is the deffirence of potencial and kinetic energy?
If a rock was about to fall off a hill, that would be potential energy. If that rock was sliding down the hill, that would be kinetic energy; it is actually moving.
