Question

1. the picture below shows a boy riding his bike down a hill. does he have kinetic or potential energy? explain your answer

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is energy of motion. Since the boy is riding his bike (in motion), he has kinetic energy. Potential energy is stored energy due to position, and while he has some gravitational - potential energy because of his height on the hill, the main energy here is kinetic as he is moving.

Answer:

He has kinetic energy because he is in motion while riding the bike down the hill.
