At the highest point of the roller coaster, potential energy is at its Response area,and kinetic energy is Response area . As the roller coaster descends, potential energy Response area and kinetic energy Response area . The total energy of the roller coaster remains Response area throughout the ride. Energy is Response area between kinetic and potential energy as the roller coaster moves.

The option "constant" (6 of 6) has been selected. Press tab to choose a response area, and spacebar to insert it. Press escape to cancel.

At the highest point of the roller coaster, potential energy is at its maximum, and kinetic energy is minimum. As the roller coaster descends, potential energy decreases and kinetic energy increases. The total energy of the roller coaster remains constant throughout the ride. Energy is transformed between kinetic and potential energy as the roller coaster moves.
