At the top, since potential energy is referred to an objects location, the highest the object the highest its potential energy.

Where is the potential energy of the box the greatest on the incline?
the box when it is inclined will have greatest potential energy on the top corners only.
What transformation of energy happens in rolling toy?
potencial energy
When a boulder is rolling down a hill what energy is it losing?
Potential Energy
Where is its gravitational potential energy a maximum?
At the top.
What kind of energy is stored in the rubber band on the rolling toy?
That is potential energy, converted to kinetic energy when the toy rolls.
After rolling halfway down an incline a marble's kinetic energy is?
The same as it's potential energy
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
Is it possible for a ball to also have potential energy as it is rolling?
Yes, if it is rolling at a constant speed it has potential energy.
Where is the potential energy of the box the greatest on the incline?
the box when it is inclined will have greatest potential energy on the top corners only.
What kind of energy does a rolling toy have (rolling toy)?
It has kinetic energy.
What type of energy is when the motion of a skateboard?
A moving skateboard has kinetic energy. If it is moving down an incline, it also has potential energy that is converted to kinetic energy as it gains speed. If its moving up an incline, kinetic energy is converted to potential energy as it loses speed.
What transformation of energy happens in rolling toy?
potencial energy
When a boulder is rolling down a hill what energy is it losing?
Potential Energy
Is rolling down a hill potential or kinetic energy?
Yes, because potential energy is energy stored but kinetic is energy in motion.
Is coasting downhill on a bike a chemical energy?
No, it's potential energy turning into kinetic energy.
Is rolling down a grassy hill potential or kinetic energy?
The act of rolling is showing kinetic energy because it is movement, but we should always look at energy change. As you go down hill, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
Explain how the maximum height is related to the maximum potential energy?
This question makes sense in the context of something like a pendulum. At the top of its swing, a pendulum is at maximum height, is not moving and so has zero kinetic energy, and has maximum potential energy since all its energy is potential. As it falls, it gradually moves with increasing speed, so its potential energy is being converted to kinetic energy. At the bottom of the swing, it is moving at maximum speed, and all its energy is kinetic, none is potential, Then it starts to move upwards again, and its kinetic energy is gradually converted back to potential energy.
