Height only affects Speed if the object is moving through a medium OTHER than a Vacuum. FRONTAL AREA of the object causes resistance to the forward motion. The 'thicker' the medium the more the resistance. I.E., Water resistance is greater than Air resistance.

So, if the WIDTH of the object is constant, then the increase in Height increases the Frontal Area and increases the resistance to forward motion. Furthermore if the Force moving the object stays the same, then its Velocity will be LOWER.

Yes. a rollercoaster has nothing pulling it forward but gravity. that is why the first hill is always the highest, so the car will gather enough speed to continue the track.also by loops it will change velocity

Yes

The slower you go the higher you will be able to ollie because your tail is not scraping the ground nearly as much which allows you to pop higher.

Why does speed affect the height of an ollie?

Speed is part of kinetic energy ... KE = 1/2 mv2 ( v is velocity, speed). Kinetic energy can be converted to potential energy, if done properly. Height is a factor of PE. PE = mgh (h is height). So an increase in KE, more speed, can be transformed into more height.

Can your speed grow with your height?

If you are a runner, it will of course have an effect on your speed. You will be able to take much bigger steps and your muscles will have more area and power. But, to make sure that your speed is growing with your height, you need to actively do cardiovascular activities that make your speed higher, like running for example.


Is there any relationship between speed and height?

Yes , there is a relationship between height and speed . Which is that to get fast we need to be tall . Height isn't anything weight can slow you down so speed also consists of height that is the relationship between speed and height


Does speed affect gravitational potential energy of an object?

Does speed 'effect' the gravitational potential energy of an object? No, but gravitational potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy - so the gravitational potential energy can effect the speed. Ep = mgh Energy Potential = mass * 9.81 (gravity) * height Speed / Velocity is absent from that equation.
