The energy associated with a bicycle changes as it speeds up going downhill due to the fact that potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. The potential energy is the energy of the position. The kinetic energy is the energy of movement.

How does the energy associated with waves change as wavelength change?
A shorter wavelength means higher energy
When you put on the brakes of a bicycle friction causes some of the mechanical energy of the brakes to change to thermal energy?
true
The energy involved in a phase change is called the?
Heat associated with phase change is called Latent Heat
Does a moving bicycle have kinetic energy?
Yes, a moving bicycle has kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion. As the bicycle moves, it possesses kinetic energy that is dependent on its mass and velocity.
How does the energy associated with waves change wavelength changes?
a shorter wavelength means lower energy. A shorter wavelength means high energy
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.
What is the role of gravity when riding a bicycle?
it keeps you on the ground. who doesnt know that? When going downhill, gravity pushes you and increases your speed without the need to keep adding your own energy.

true
Is coasting downhill on a bike a chemical energy?
No, it's potential energy turning into kinetic energy.
What is chemical reaction associated with energy change?
Metabolic Process
As an object moves downhill some of the energy is?
Before it rolls downhill, it has gravitational potential energy. As it rolls downhill, part of this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy (including rotational energy); due to friction, this will soon be converted into waste energy, mainly heat.
Is energy always associated to biochemical process?
Any process, any change, requires energy.
The energy involved in a phase change is called the?
Heat associated with phase change is called Latent Heat
Does a moving bicycle have kinetic energy?
Yes, a moving bicycle has kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion. As the bicycle moves, it possesses kinetic energy that is dependent on its mass and velocity.
As the speed of a bicycle moving along a horizontal surface increases from 2 meters per second to 4 meters per second the bicycle's gravitational potential energy?
There is no change. The bike is moving along a horizontal surface, and only a change in height can change the gravitational PE.
