Question

Energy transformations often involve more than two types of energy.
Read the passage about the end of the ride. Think about the evidence for changes in kinetic energy, sound energy, and thermal energy.

The roller coaster train went through a final big turn and then headed back toward the station.
The train slowed down as brakes on the track squealed and heated up. Once the train came to a stop in the station, the riders stood up and left.
Match each claim with the evidence that supports it.

help me plz

Answer 2

Sure I got you. I'll take a look.

Answer 3

So, at the end of the ride, the train goes through some big turn and starts heading back to the station. As it does that, it starts to slow down. The brakes on the track squealing, that's gonna be evidence of some changes in sound energy. And those brakes also get really hot from all the friction that builds up. So, that's some evidence of changes in thermal energy.

Answer 4

When the train comes to a complete stop in the station, and the riders get up and leave. This means that there would've been a change in kinetic energy because now the train wouldn't be moving anymore.
