In a roller coaster, the kinetic energy is greatest at the lowest points of the track, where the speed of the coaster is highest. Typically, this would be at point D if that is the lowest point in the provided scenarios (a, A, b, B, c, C, d, D).
Without seeing the image, it's important to rely on the understanding that as a roller coaster descends from heights (potential energy) to lower heights, it converts that potential energy into kinetic energy, peaking at the lowest elevations. Therefore, point D (or whichever point is the lowest) would be where the roller coaster has the most kinetic energy.
