Is a rolling marble a kinetic or potential energy?
A rolling marble has kinetic energy due to its motion.
After rolling halfway down an incline a marble's kinetic energy is?
The marble's kinetic energy is halfway between its initial and final energies. This is because kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity, and velocity would have increased as the marble rolled down the incline, reaching its maximum velocity at the bottom.
Would a marble have more potential energy or kinetic energy?
A marble at the top of a ramp would have more potential energy due to its position, while a marble rolling down the ramp would have more kinetic energy due to its motion.
Is it possible to predict the speed of a marble after rolling down a ramp if you know the height of the ramp?
Yes, it is possible to predict the speed of a marble after rolling down a ramp if you know the height of the ramp. The speed can be calculated using the principles of conservation of energy. By considering the potential energy at the top of the ramp and converting it to kinetic energy at the bottom, the speed can be determined using equations.
What is the main energy form that makes a toy marble roll cross the floor?
The main energy form that makes a toy marble roll across the floor is kinetic energy. As the marble moves, it gains kinetic energy from its potential energy due to its initial position, and this energy allows it to overcome friction and other forces to keep rolling.
What is the energy conversion when a marble is released from a ramp?
Potential Energy changes to Kinetic Energy.
What energy does a marble have when it is dropped?
Kinetic energy is moving energy
Where does kinetic energy go when a marble stops?
When a marble stops moving, its kinetic energy is converted into other forms of energy such as sound and heat due to friction with the surface it stops on. Some of the kinetic energy may also be transferred to the surface of the marble and the surrounding air molecules as vibrations.
What is the energy that makes toy marbles roll across the floor?
The kinetic energy of the toy marble as it moves is what allows it to roll across the floor. This energy comes from the marble's motion and speed.
What happens to the velocity of a marble as it accelerates down its first hill?
The velocity of the marble increases as it accelerates down its first hill due to the force of gravity. As the marble descends, the gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, leading to an increase in velocity until it reaches the bottom of the hill.
Does the or downhill direction matter to the speed of the marble?
Yes, the downhill direction does affect the speed of the marble. When a marble rolls downhill, it gains potential energy that converts to kinetic energy, resulting in an increase in speed. Conversely, if the marble rolls uphill, it loses speed as it converts kinetic energy back into potential energy. Thus, the incline significantly influences the marble's velocity.
If a marble is in a tube starting as potential energy and turns into kinetic energy but the marble goes in a loop and goes to a stop what type of energy is that called?
You have converted potential energy to kinetic and then back to potential. If the marble came back exactly to its starting point you would have invented perpetual motion, but in fact it will lose a little energy in friction against the tube so it will gradually lose energy and eventually just stop at the lowest point of the tube.
