Which car has the most potential energy going down a hill?
p
When would a person going down a hill have the most potential energy?
He would have most potential energy when he hasn't started going down yet, since the higher he is, the greater his potential energy. Potential Energy= mass*gravity*height(from ground)
What kind of energy is it when you go up a hill?
when you are going up a hill by walking you are converting your potential energy into kinetic energy with every step and also storing more and more potential energy with every step if you stop after every step but if you are walking with a certain velocity you possess kinetic energy . At the top of the hill when you stop you possess maximum potential energy.
When does a car going down the hill have the most kinetic energy?
At the steepest point near the bottom of the hill
Why is a rock on the top of a hill kinetic energy?
A rock on top of a hill has potential energy, not kinetic energy. If it starts rolling down the hill then the potential energy transforms to kinetic energy.
How kinetic energy and potential energy vary?
Well, the most potential energy is when your going slow or your stopped. The most kinetic energy is like at the bottom of a hill over the first hump in a rollarcoaster, when your going your fastest. Your speed and probably friction will affect it.
How is a ball on a hill gravitational energy?
the object has a potential energy relative to , for example, the bottom of the hill, or the bottom of the slide.
Can a object have both potential energy and kinetic energy at the same time?
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.
What happens to the potential energy and the energy of a ball as it rolls down a hill from a position of rest at the top of the hill?
The potential energy gets less until the ball gets to the bottom of the hill, at which point the potential energy is zero. The potential energy that is lost, gets converted to Kinetic energy of the ball that goes faster and faster as it gets more and more of the Potential energy.
Will an object have more potential energy atop a 50 foot hill or 100 foot hill?
An object will have more potential energy at the top of a 100 foot hill. Gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to height.
A roller coaster going down the first hill is an example of what type of energy?
It is kinetic energy because it is in motion.Jesus loves you! A car rolling down a hill is an example of which type of energy?kinetic...Potential energy
The energy of position such as a rock on a hill is?
Potential energy
