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

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)
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
Can chemical energy transform into mechanical energy after riding a bike?
Not after riding a bike, but rather during riding a bike. Your muscles convert chemical energy (a form of potential energy) into mechanical energy to do work.
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.
Will gravity slow down a bike?
Only if the bike is coasting uphill.
What is it called to roll down the hill on a bike without pedaling?
to roll down the hill on a bike without pedaling is called coast or coasting
Can a bike transfer from chemical energy to mechanical energy?
Yes
When you pedal a bike you use what type of energy?
You use chemical energy.
When riding a bike what is stored in your muscles?
Chemical energy
Will downhill forks fit on a normale mountion bike?
The downhill forks will fit on a normal mountain bike with a little fabrication.
What energy do you need to pedal a bike?
Chemical energy from the food you've eaten.
When energy conversions when ride a bicycle up and down the hill?
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.
