What best describes the energy changes that occur while a child is riding on a sled?
When a child is riding on a sled, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as the sled moves downhill. The child's kinetic energy increases as the sled picks up speed, while potential energy decreases due to the decrease in height. Friction between the sled and the surface converts some of the kinetic energy to thermal energy.

A child riding a merry-go-round is accelerating because the child?
is experiencing a centripetal acceleration directed towards the center of the merry-go-round due to the circular motion. This acceleration constantly changes the direction of the child's velocity, even though the speed may remain constant, resulting in acceleration.
When is the most energy stored in a trampoline?
The stored energy, also called potential energy, is at its maximum when the springs are stretched to the maximum and just about to propel the child upwards into the air. When the springs accelerate the child, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the child is thrown upwards. When the child is at the top of the jump, the child has the potential energy, and this is converted back into kinetic energy as the child falls. Energy is lost in friction and in air resistance, so the child's muscles have to supply some energy to keep the process going. Luckily the child has a very sophisticated inbuilt dynamic positioning system that allows him or her to keep on jumping continuously without even thinking about it.
What energy transformation taking place child on the slide?
As the child goes down the slide, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. The potential energy from the child's height is gradually transformed into motion as they slide down. Frictional forces and air resistance may also play a role in dissipating some of this energy as heat.
What is the kinetic energy of a ball if a child does 5.0J of work on a spring while loading the ball into a spring loaded gun?
The work done by the child on the spring is equal to the potential energy stored in the spring. If all of this potential energy is then transferred to the ball as kinetic energy, the kinetic energy of the ball would also be 5.0 J.
What kind of energy conversion is a child shivering in the cold?
Chemical (burning food) to mechanical (motion) to heat.

When is the appropriate time to remove training wheels from a child's bike?
The appropriate time to remove training wheels from a child's bike is when the child shows confidence and balance while riding with them. It is recommended to gradually transition to riding without training wheels to ensure the child is ready and comfortable.
Is unhealthy an adjective?
