The acceleration of the bike will depend on the general shape of the hill(ie. it's slope along the line of movement). If you don't take any friction into account, yes, the speed of the bike at the bottom will be greater if it goes from the bigger(ie. higher) hill.

Does a person riding a Ferris wheel accelerate?

Yes, a person riding a Ferris wheel experiences acceleration. Even though the speed of the person may remain constant, the direction of their velocity is constantly changing as they move along the circular path, resulting in centripetal acceleration.


What bike is faster hypothesis?

It is hypothesized that a road bike with a streamlined frame and lightweight components would be faster than a mountain bike due to its lower weight and aerodynamic design. The road bike's thinner tires and more aggressive riding position may also contribute to increased speed compared to a mountain bike, which is designed for off-road terrain and features wider tires and a more upright riding position.


Can a body have forces applied on it but will not accelerate justify your answer?

Newton's second law states that when forces an unbalanced force is applied to an object it will accelerate in the formula: Fnet=mawhere F is the sum of the forces mass and a is the acceleration.A body can have no acceleration if the sum of all the forces is 0. So therefore forces can be applied, but they must have an equal and opposite force canceling them out. A=F/M so when F is 0, A is 0.So if there is constant velocity on an object it will not accelerate!---------Example:If you keep riding your bike in a certain direction at 5 m/s constantly, there is constant velocity present and no acceleration :D


How much energy does riding a bike consume?

Riding a bike consumes about 0.049 calories per pound of body weight per minute. This means that a person weighing 150 pounds would burn approximately 7.35 calories per minute while biking.


When riding in an elevator why does a person appear to lose weight when accelerating downward?

Weight is felt by the body resisting the pull (acceleration) of gravity. Less acceleration means less pull thus less weight. The rate at which you are accelerating downward subtracts from the pull of gravity, thus your weight is less. If you fall, say from a cliff or tall building you accelerate downward at exactly the acceleration of gravity so you're completely weightless.

If a person is riding a bike and has not changed either speed or direction is that person accelerating?

No. they must be increasing speed to accelerate.

Is riding a dirt bike physical exercise?

No, unless you are out of gas and have to push the bike it is just like riding in a car. Even though you may be using your arms to turn and your feet to accelerate, they do not amount to enough to call it exercise.

Is it ride in a truck or ride on a truck?

A person would ride in or inside a truck, not on the truck. Riding on the truck means a person could be riding anywhere on the truck, and a person usually rides inside the truck. Riding inside the truck is more specific.
