What else can I help you with?
A squirrel running up a tree and sitting on a branch shows what kind of energy conversation (apex)?
Kinetic energy becoming potential energy.
During the swing of a frictionless pendulum what energy forms remain constant?
In a frictionless pendulum, the total mechanical energy (the sum of potential and kinetic energy) remains constant. This means that as the pendulum swings back and forth, the energy is continuously exchanged between potential and kinetic energy, but the total amount of energy remains the same.
What is the trace the energy conversions involved when a cat hits a small bell with its paw?
When a cat hits a small bell with its paw, the kinetic energy from the cat's paw is transferred to the bell, causing it to ring. The kinetic energy is then converted into sound energy as the bell produces sound waves. Overall, the energy conversion involves kinetic energy being transferred and transformed into sound energy.
What is active energy called?
Kinetic energy. I learned this from Berkley charter school Florida. By my 5th grade teacher Mr.vliet.
What kind of energy when a deputy sheriff rides a horse while directing traffic?
There are two kinds of energy that are taking place in this situation and they are chemical and kinetic energy. Chemical energy the deputy has was taken from the food that he ate. This energy is then being transformed to kinetic energy when he is directing traffic.
What does gravity do to your kinetic energy when you are driving uphill and when you are driving downhill?
When driving uphill, gravity acts against your motion, decreasing your kinetic energy. When driving downhill, gravity acts in the direction of motion, increasing your kinetic energy.
What happens to the potential energy of water as gravity pulls the water downhill?
As water is pulled downhill by gravity, its potential energy decreases and kinetic energy increases. The potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the water gains speed and momentum while flowing downhill.
Which force causes rocks to roll downhill?
Gravity is the force that causes rocks to roll downhill. The slope of the hill creates a gravitational potential energy that pulls the rock towards the bottom. As the rock starts rolling, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, driving the rock downward.
Is coasting downhill on a bike a chemical energy?
No, it's potential energy turning into kinetic energy.
When does a roller coaster increase kinetic energy?
A roller coaster increases kinetic energy when it is going downhill, as gravity is pulling it down and accelerating it. The potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the roller coaster gains speed.
Where does running water get its energy?
Running water gets its energy from the force of gravity pulling it downhill. As water flows downhill, it gains kinetic energy that can be harnessed by turbines in hydroelectric power plants to generate electricity.
What are the energy conversion of riding a bicycle up and down the hills?
When riding a bicycle uphill, the energy conversion involves converting chemical energy from food consumed into kinetic energy to pedal the bike uphill against gravity. When riding downhill, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the bike accelerates due to gravity. Some energy is lost as heat and air resistance during both uphill and downhill cycling.
Is gravity kinetic energy?
There is no "gravity kinetic energy". There is gravitational energy (a type of potential energy), and - separately - there is kinetic energy (the energy of movement).
Where does the energy for rivers come from?
The energy for rivers primarily comes from gravity. Water flows downhill due to gravity, creating the kinetic energy that moves the water downstream. Additionally, sunlight provides energy for the water cycle which drives the movement of water in rivers.
Is kinetic energy energy in moition?
yes because if you were running down a hill you are in motion and kinetic energy is in its greatest coming downhill.
What is the kinetic energy when the skater starts down hill?
The kinetic energy of the skater when they start going downhill will depend on their mass, velocity, and the height of the hill. Kinetic energy is given by the formula KE = 0.5 * mass * velocity^2. As the skater begins going downhill, their potential energy will decrease and convert into kinetic energy.
What energy has by a truck increasing speed downhill?
The truck's kinetic energy is increasing as it gains speed downhill due to its motion. The gravitational potential energy of the truck is being converted into kinetic energy as it moves downhill, with the conversion being more pronounced the steeper the incline.
