How do kinetic and potential energy work on a waterslide or roller coaster

On a roller coaster potential energy builds up while you are going up a hill . Once at the top all of that energy is being released this giving you a push which means all of that energy is making you down down the hill. Hope this helps you.

Answerthe energy required is 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁸ j, to three significant figures.explanationwe define electric potential as the ratio electric potential energy to the charge,    then the following gives us the potential difference,      the formula  may be on your formula sheet.the change in electric potential energy would be the energy that would needed to move it from point a to point b. solving for that, we get    using q = 8.00  × 10⁻¹⁹ c and  δv = 2.00 v, we get    the energy required is 1.60 × 10⁻¹⁸ j, to three significant figures.
