How a skier gliding down a hill illustrates the conservation of energy?
because the skis are on the snow it causes friction which turns in to heat causing the skier to stop
A skier on a hill has potential energy due to?
the height of the skier.
When does a car going down the hill have the most kinetic energy?
At the steepest point near the bottom of the hill
What is the example in which gravity speeds up a moving object?
If you are on a skateboard going x miles per hour, and you come across a downhill slope, your velocity will increase as you go down the hill.
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 are some real world examples of negative slope?
a skier going up a hill a skier going down a hill
What does it mean for a line to have a negative slope?
If a line has a negative slope it is going 'down hill' and if it has a positive slope it is going 'up hill'
Skiers are pulled up hill by a moving ski slope when they reach the top of the hill they ski down what type of energy do the skier gain as they go up hill?
Once the skiers go uphill by a cable car or lift, they gain potential energy. This potential energy is converted into kinetic energy once the skiers start to ski down the slope.
What will stop a ski at the bottom of a hill?
The skier will gain momentum as they travel down the hill but once the hill flattens out they will eventually slow down due to friction

A skier on a hill has potential energy due to?
the height of the skier.
What is main type of energy conversion that happens as a skier goes down a hill?
potential energy
Explain how a skier gliding down a hill illustrates the conservation of energy.?
because the skis are on the snow it causes friction which turns in to heat causing the skier to stop
What equations will have a graph with a slope of negative 3?
That will depend on what equations but in general if it has a slope of -3 then it will have a down hill slope
Which statement best describes a line in slope-intercept form when the coefficient of the xterm is negative?
The line is going 'down hill' from left to right
When does a car going down the hill have the most kinetic energy?
At the steepest point near the bottom of the hill
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).
