Question

Explain why the roller coaster’s potential energy is greater at point 1 than at point 4.

Answer 1

I can’t see a picture but it’s most likely point one is at the top of the roller coaster. If it is, it has more potential energy because it is at the top, it has more potential to gain more energy.

Answer 2

Answer: 1/17/2020

Potential energy is directly related to the height of an object. Point 1 is higher than point 4, so the potential energy is greater at point 1.
