To determine at which position the roller coaster has the greatest amount of potential energy, we need to consider the height of the roller coaster at each position. Potential energy is typically highest when an object is at its highest point.
In a roller coaster, potential energy is calculated with the formula:
\[ PE = mgh \]
where \( PE \) is potential energy, \( m \) is mass, \( g \) is acceleration due to gravity, and \( h \) is height above a reference point.
Without seeing the actual image, I can guide you on how to answer the question based on height:
- Look for the position that is highest above the ground.
- The highest point will correspond to the maximum potential energy.
If position A is the highest point on the roller coaster, then the answer would be A. If B, C, or D is higher, then that position would be the correct answer.
Please refer to the roller coaster image to find the highest point.
