A skateboarder, just learning to use a half pipe as shown below, drops in off the top of one side. She stands straight as she skates down the one side and up the other. She

expected to get to the top of other side but didn't make it. The skateboarder recalled

the law of conservation of energy from science and didn't understand why she didn't

make it to the top of the other side. She then watched some more experienced skaters.

She noticed that they bent their knees and pushed off at the bottom.

Explain why the skateboarder did not make it to the top of the other side of the half

pipe. In your reponse, be sure to include:

the law of conservation of energy

where energy was lost as the skateboard moved across the half pipe.

why the other skaters were able to make it to the top.

Energy was lost as frictional energy. Hence when trying to move up to the top for the second time, the skateboarder was unable to do so.

The others provided additional energy to make up for the lost energy by dending their knees

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of energy, energy can niether be created nor destroyed but can change its form.

Here kinetic energy of skate boarder was converted into frictional energy and lost in the surroundings(energy was not destroyed but simply changed its form to energy of particles in the air). She was therefore unable to reach to the top the second time.

Other skateboarders faced the same, but the added energy to their movement by converting energy stored in their bodies to their kinetic energies. They were therefore abole to reach to the top.

the reason is because the moon has some form of gravity, and that gravity pulls the ocean tides.

Acetic acid /əˈsiːtɪk/, systematically named ethanoic acid /ˌɛθəˈnoʊɪk/, is a colourless liquid organic compound with the chemical formula ch3cooh (also written as ch3co2h or c2h4o2). when undiluted, it is sometimes called glacial acetic acid. vinegar is no less than 4% acetic acid by volume, making acetic acid the main component of vinegar apart from water. acetic acid has a distinctive sour taste and pungent smell. in addition to household vinegar, it is mainly produced as a precursor to polyvinyl acetate and cellulose acetate. it is classified as a weak acid since it only partially dissociates in solution, but concentrated acetic acid is corrosive and can attack the skin.acetic acidnamespreferred iupac nameacetic acidsystematic iupac nameethanoic acidother namesvinegar (when dilute); hydrogen acetate; methanecarboxylic acid[1][2]identifierscas number64-19-7 3d model (jsmol)interactive image3dmetb00009 reference506007chebichebi: 15366 chemblchembl539 chemspider171 drugbankdb03166 echa infocard100.000.528ec number200-580-7e numbere260 (preservatives)gmelin reference1380iuphar/bps1058keggd00010 meshacetic+acidpubchem cid176rtecs numberaf1225000uniiq40q9n063p un number2789inchiinchi=1s/c2h4o2/c1-2(3)4/h1h3,(h,3,4) key: qtbsbxvteameqo-uhfffaoysa-n smilescc(o)=o
