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


Which example describes an increase in potential energy bike going down hill a basketball falling through a net a roller-coaster moving down a track a paint can being carried up a ladder?

A roller-coaster moving down a track depicts an increase in potential energy. As the roller-coaster descends, it gains potential energy due to its height above the ground, which is converted to kinetic energy as it accelerates downwards.


What kind of energy happens when a roller coaster reaches the very top of the track just brfore it starts back down?

At the top of the track, the roller coaster has mostly potential energy due to its height above the ground. As it starts back down, this potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy as the coaster picks up speed.

What does a roller coaster do?

Well, to understand what a roller coaster does you will need to understand what a roller coaster is. A roller coaster is a small vehicle that runs along a fixed track. What a roller coaster does is move along that fixed track at very high speeds, and many people find this very thrilling And if your wondering how a roller coaster works Well, there are 2 types of roller coaster, most commonly the Chain Lift, The chain lift works by hooks on the bottom of the roller coaster car that hook on to a roller chain (the type of chain you would find on a bicycle) and the chain pulls you all the way to the top of the big hill, This is the part where you hear all the clicking. As you start going down the big hill the hooks simply slide out of the chain and gravity starts to take over, but the roller coaster can stay moving because of Kinetic energy and Potential energy. So the 3 things that are very important to a Roller Coaster are Kinetic energy, Potential energy, and gravity. A roller coaster works sort of like rolling a ball down a hill.

When you make a marble roller coaster how can you change the roller coaster to help the marble get over a hill?

Support the track more, a moving track can severely slow down the speed of the ball. Try lowering the hill too of course, and making the first drop taller.
