What forms of energy are involved in a bicycle coasting along a level road?

It's probably a bit of both. As long as the bike is moving it'll have some kinetic energy. If it's moving uphill it'll be gaining potential energy and if it's moving downhill it'll be losing potential energy.

What form of energy does a bicycle coasting along a flat road best demonstrate?
Conservation of momentum.
What happens to the kinetic energy of a skateboard that is coasting along a flat surface slows down and coming to a stop?
it change into potential energy beace it slows down
A bicycle coasts along a flat road. What form of energy does it best demonstrate?
kinetic

You are riding on your bike and stop pedaling coasting along the road when your bike slows down and stops What happened to the energy of your motion when your bike stopped?
It was released as heat
When would a bicycle rider not be accelerating?
A bicycle often "coasts along".
As the speed of a bicycle moving along a horizontal surface increases from 2 meters per second to 4 meters per second the bicycle's gravitational potential energy?
There is no change. The bike is moving along a horizontal surface, and only a change in height can change the gravitational PE.
What is coasting in a car?
Letting gravity roll the car along... as on a hill or gradient.... and with the engine off or the gears in neutral.
Describe the energy transformations that occur when a person pushes a bike to the top of a hill and coasts down?
First it's chemical energy from eaten food that turns into heat, a little bit of kinetic energy and potential energy(pushing the bike uphill). Then it's potential energy turning into kinetic energy and a little bit of heat, along with some further chemical energy being used up.(coasting down)
What part of a bicycle makes the bicycle go?
The pedals, crank, chain, sprockets, and wheels. Along with the rider, they all work together to make the bicycle go.
Why is carbon used for breathing?
When the chemical reaction involved in respiration occurs, carbon dioxide is released along with water, and energy.
What does velocipede mean?
It is a compound made up (by a French bicycle manufacturer in the 1800s) from the Latin roots velox (fast, swift) and pes (foot), so something along the lines of "fleet of foot".An early bicycle propelled by pushing the feet along the ground while straddling the vehicle.
