A wide arrow labeled kinetic energy 250 J with a small arrow turning away from it labeled friction 75 J.
This energy transformation diagram represents the energy of a skateboarder moving along a half-pipe. As she skates toward the top of the half-pipe, her original kinetic energy is converted to potential energy and friction.


How much of the energy is potential?

J

175 J

(Using energy conservation: 250 J initial kinetic = potential gained + 75 J lost to friction, so potential = 250 − 75 = 175 J.)
