Which label of the roller coaster is incorrect?(1 point)ResponsesThe roller coaster would only have kinetic energy at the point labeled "gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy" because it will be accelerating at this point. The roller coaster would only have kinetic energy at the point labeled "gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy" because it will be accelerating at this point. The label indicating "maximum gravitational potential energy" because this should be at the lowest point on the track. The label indicating "maximum gravitational potential energy" because this should be at the lowest point on the track. The point labeled "maximum kinetic energy" because this is not the lowest point on the track. The point labeled "maximum kinetic energy" because this is not the lowest point on the track. The roller coaster would only have potential energy at the point labeled "gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy" because it is still above the ground at this point.

The roller coaster would only have potential energy at the point labeled "gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy" because it is still above the ground at this point.

Answer 1

The label indicating "maximum gravitational potential energy" because this should be at the lowest point on the track.

Answer 2

Yes, the potential energy is MINIMUM (not maximum) where the altitude is minimum.

(m g h), small h is small U

Answer 3

You are correct. The label indicating "maximum gravitational potential energy" is incorrect because the potential energy is actually at its minimum at the lowest point on the track. Thank you for pointing that out.

Answer 4

To determine which label of the roller coaster is incorrect, we need to understand the concept of energy and its distribution throughout the roller coaster ride.

1) The label indicating "maximum gravitational potential energy" is incorrect because the roller coaster should have the maximum potential energy at the highest point of the track, not the lowest point. Potential energy relates to the height of an object above the ground. Therefore, the label "maximum gravitational potential energy" should be placed at the highest point of the roller coaster track.

2) The point labeled "maximum kinetic energy" is a correct label. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, and it reaches its highest value when the roller coaster is moving at its fastest speed. This point may not necessarily be the lowest point on the track. Therefore, the label "maximum kinetic energy" is correct and should not be considered as incorrect.

3) The roller coaster would only have potential energy (gravitational potential energy) at the point labeled "gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy" because it is still above the ground at this point. However, it is incorrect to state that the roller coaster would only have kinetic energy at this point due to acceleration. Kinetic energy can be present at other points on the track as well, depending on the speed of the roller coaster.

Based on the explanation above, the incorrect label is the one indicating "maximum gravitational potential energy" because it should be at the highest point on the track, not the lowest point.
