What type of energy is a skier poised to take off at the top of a hill?
Kinetic Energy
What type of energy does a pebble sitting on the top of a mountain have?
It has potential energy.
What kind of energy would a skier have if standing at the top of a hill?
Gravitational potential energy.
What does kind of energy does a skier traveling downhill have?
Half way down the slope, the skier has kinetic energy and potential energy. At the top of the slope, before he starts moving, he only has potential energy. At the bottom of the slope, he has only kinetic energy. This is an extremely simplified explanation, but it's probably the answer that your teacher is looking for. Hope that helps.
A rock on top of a mountain has what energy?
Potential energy. Although if the rock is pushed, moved etc. it becomes kinetic energy
What energy does a skierhas at topppof a hill and coming down a hill?
When skier is at the top of mountain he had kinetic energy which is further converted in to potential energy from the time when he start skiing from the top of the mountain.
What type of energy is a skier poised to take off at the top of a hill?
Kinetic Energy
A skier who has more blank energy than a skier at the bottom?
A skier at the top has more potential energy
What type of energy does a pebble sitting on the top of a mountain have?
It has potential energy.
When does the skier have the greatest potential energy?
Just standing there, a skier on the top of the mountain has potential energy. If she uses her poles to push-pull before taking off, she's building up a small amount of kinetic energy. If a skier is then moving down the mountain, his movement downward is kinetic energy which increases as his speed increases. If he or she collides with an immovable object while skiing, kinetic energy abruptly ends. If he or she takes off from the top of the mountain and an avalanche happens to hit at the same time, the kinetic energy of the avalanche engulfs the skier and overpowers the lower kinetic energy of the skier. The skier and avalanche become as if one in the kinetic force of the avalanche--until the skier collides with something or is buried, and thus is separated from the avalanche's kinetic energy which continues until the avalanche stops.
What is the energy acting on a skier at the top of the hill and ib the bottom?
Potential energy at the top and kinetic energy at the bottom.
What kind of energy would a skier have if standing at the top of a hill?
Gravitational potential energy.
Is this question kinetic or portential ''A skier is poised at the top of a steep slope?
kinetic energy
When does a skydiver have the gratest potential energy?
I'm guessing when their at the top of a mountain when their about to start going down, sorry i couldn't give you a better answer.
How does a skier gliding down a hill illustrate the conservation of energy?
At the top of the hill, the skier possesses potential energy. As he travels down the hill, his potential energy is converted into his kinetic energy. Conservation of energy says that the skiers potential energy equals his kinetic energy further downslope (plus a little lost to heat from friction).
What does kind of energy does a skier traveling downhill have?
Half way down the slope, the skier has kinetic energy and potential energy. At the top of the slope, before he starts moving, he only has potential energy. At the bottom of the slope, he has only kinetic energy. This is an extremely simplified explanation, but it's probably the answer that your teacher is looking for. Hope that helps.
What is the energy form of falling rocks from the top of a mountain?
Electrical Energy
