it is both kinetic and potential energy
Kinetic energy becoming potential energy.
There are two kinds of energy that are taking place in this situation and they are chemical and kinetic energy. Chemical energy the deputy has was taken from the food that he ate. This energy is then being transformed to kinetic energy when he is directing traffic.
The sum of potential + kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy. I learned this from Berkley charter school Florida. By my 5th grade teacher Mr.vliet.
If a cat that has a mass of 4.50 kilograms sits on a ledge that is 0.800 meters above ground and it jumps down to the ground, it will have a specific amount of kinetic energy just as it reaches the ground. In this instance, the answer would be 35.3J.
No, it's potential energy turning into kinetic energy.
There is no "gravity kinetic energy". There is gravitational energy (a type of potential energy), and - separately - there is kinetic energy (the energy of movement).
yes because if you were running down a hill you are in motion and kinetic energy is in its greatest coming downhill.
The object can be stationary and have gravity pulling on it ergo no kinetic energy
The energy associated with a bicycle changes as it speeds up going downhill due to the fact that potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. The potential energy is the energy of the position. The kinetic energy is the energy of movement.
No. Gravity is a force. Potential energy turns into kinetic (moving) energy when you fall due to gravity.
gravity
Its a bad example, but some potential energy is involved. You convert chemical energy from the fuel to kinetic energy and heat energy. The kinetic energy drives you into the water. There the car sinks because of the height difference and gravity. This is a form of potential energy. A better example would be a person driving up and down a mountain. When driving up a mountain you store kinetic energy into potential energy. On the way down you regain the potential energy you stored, which results in a higher kinetic energy when driving down.
Gravity is a force more so than an energy
Generally when water is used as a source of energy it is either the kinetic energy of the flowing water or the potential energy of the water as it changed height that was used as the energy source. In both cases it is gravity that is the ultimate driving force that makes the water move (for kinetic energy) or is the source of the potential energy - which is recovered as the water moves from higher to lower.
Water flowing downhill does not require energy, only the force of gravity.
