1. What is the energy of a motorcycle moving slowly at the top of a hill?
A. entirely kinetic
B. entirely potential
C. entirely gravitational
D. both kinetic and potential
Answer (1)
The energy of a motorcycle moving slowly at the too of a hill is D. both kinetic and potential.The motorcycle posesses kinetic energy because it is moving even if it is slow. It also possesses potential energy specifically gravitational potential energy because the motorcycle is at the top of the hill.An object can possess both kinetic and potential energy as long as it is in motion and covers a specific height.
