Question

Which of the following best represents potential energy being converted to kinetic energy?

Answer 1

A roller coaster starts at the top of a hill and then rolls down the hill.

A pitcher throws a baseball, and then the batter hits a homerun.

A man jogs around the block and then stops to drink an energy drink.

A woman peddles her bicycle across town and back again.

Answer 2

A good example to illustrate the conversion from potential energy to kinetic energy is a water fall. while it's high up it has potential energy because of gravity, as it falls, that potential energy is converted into kinetic energy (as it moves).

Answer 3

So the answer would be A because the roller starts at the top of the hill then rolls down

Answer 4

yes
