Afriend asks you how much pressure is in your car tires. you know that the tire manufacturer recommends 30 psi, but it's been a while since you've checked. you can't find a tire gauge in the car, but you do find the owner's manual and a ruler. fortunately, you've just finished taking physics, so you tell your friend, "i don't know, but i can figure it out." from the owner's manual you find that the car's mass is 1100 kg . it seems reasonable to assume that each tire supports one-fourth of the weight. with the ruler you find that the tires are 14 cm wide and the flattened segment of the tire in contact with the road is 13 cm long.

chemical energy --> gravitational potential energy --> kinetic energy --> elastic potential energy --> gravitational potential energy

explanation:

when emma starts the hike, the chemical energy stored in her body is used to climb up the mountain, and so she gains gravitational potential energy (because at the end, she will be at a higher height h above the ground). then she goes bungee jumping: as she falls, this gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy (because her speed increases as she falls down), until the point when the rope stretches, and she stops moving. at that moment, all the kinetic energy is converted into elastic potential energy due to the stretching of the rope. then, this energy is released because the rope returns to its natural length, and emma gains a small increase in altitude , so she gains some gravitational potential energy.
