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 is the potential energy increased by going up hill?
gravitational potential energy
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.
Is rolling down a hill potential or kinetic energy?
Yes, because potential energy is energy stored but kinetic is energy in motion.
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
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.
When a boulder is rolling down a hill what energy is it losing?
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
Does a rock sitting on a hill have energy why?
It has potential energy that can be released by starting it rolling down the hill so that the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and friction with the surface.
WHAT IS THE ENERGY CONVERSION OF MOVING DOWNWARD WITH A ROLLER SKATE ON A SLOPE?
From a stand still, going down a hill on skates you are converting potential energy into kinetic energy.
As a car rolls down a hill where would the motion and gravitational energy be equal?
As a car rolls down a hill, the motion and gravitational potential energy(GPE) will be equal when the kinetic energy is equal to the potential energy.
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).
