How does the energy associated with a bicycle change as it speeds up going downhill?

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.


Is coasting downhill on a bike a chemical energy?

No, it's potential energy turning into kinetic energy.


When rolling downhill a rollar coasters potential energy is converted?

Yes. At the top of the hill, the potential energy is at a maximum. As the coaster is rolling down the hill, the potential energy (or energy due to the coaster's position or height), is converted into kinetic energy (as the roller coaster is rushing downhill). Hope this helps, physicsisland@hotmail.com


When rolling downhill a roller coaster's potential energy is converted into a kinetic energy b thermal energy c sound energy d all of the above?

d


List 4 examples of types of energy?

Chemical energy - A battery (Converting chemical energy to electrical energy) Kinetic energy - A ball rolling on the floor Heat - When you rub your hands together (kinetic-->heat) Potential energy - a skateboarder on top of a hill (potential-->kinetic when rolling downhill)


Is kinetic energy energy stored in a bicycle at the top of a hill?

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.


Is the energy transformations in a car's engine an example of multiple transformations?

Yes. Chemical energy to mechanical and electrical energy and then mechanical energy to kinetic energy.


Is the energy transformations in a car engine are an example of multiple transformations?

Yes. Chemical energy to mechanical and electrical energy and then mechanical energy to kinetic energy.


Most energy transformations produce what form of energy?

In most energy transformations, part of the energy is wasted. Much of the wasted energy is usually converted to heat.


What transport systems do not require energy?

All forms of transport, or moving, require energy. If you mean electricity or fuel, then walking, biking, using a raft or sailboat, rolling anything downhill, or anything similar to that.


Are energy transformations in a car engine an example of multiple transformations?

yes because three times of energy transform


What is the role of gravity when riding a bicycle?

it keeps you on the ground. who doesnt know that? When going downhill, gravity pushes you and increases your speed without the need to keep adding your own energy.
