This video demonstrates how the gravitational potential energy of a skateboarder is converted into kinetic energy as they move down a ramp.  It discusses efficiency and how you can calculate the energy mathematically at both stages.  It also ties into SUVAT and demonstrates how an objects acceleration due to...
