When a bike goes up a hill, mechanical energy from pedaling is converted to gravitational potential energy as the bike gains height. When the bike goes down the hill, the gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as the bike accelerates. Frictional forces also convert some of the energy to heat.
No. On top of the hill the bike would have potential energy. If released, by letting the bike roll downhill, it'd turn into kinetic energy as the bike picks up speed.
Turning potential energy into kinetic energy. As you ride down the hill the potential energy you stored in your mass on the way up is converted into kinetic energy. That's why you speed up as you go down a hill and also why it's harder to go uphill.
Passive Transport
chemical energy from food the rider has eaten gets turne into kinetic energy as the bike is moving. Then into potential energy as the bike heads uphill. As the bike heads down potential energy turns into kinetic energy.
it depends on how on how fast you petal and how fit you are
You gain Potential Energy as you cycle up a hill.
Chemical energy from food you've eaten turns into kinetic energy in your motion, potential energy in your elevation, and thermal energy in your muscles, bearings ASO.
The skier going up the hill gains potential energy due to its height increase, which is stored energy that can be released when the skier goes back down the hill. As the skier goes down the hill, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion.
To effectively ride a bike up a hill, shift to a lower gear to make pedaling easier, maintain a steady pace, and use proper body positioning by leaning slightly forward to distribute your weight evenly. Additionally, focus on breathing steadily and staying relaxed to conserve energy.
Imagine you're on a roller coaster. Now imagine that you have already gone down the first hill. now a second smaller hill is coming up. When you are at the top of the hill you have kinetic energy going forward. But you also have potential energy going down because gravity is still trying to push you down.
