As shown below, a student places a 500-gram car at point X on a wooden racetrack in an energy transformation investigation.

What outcome is most likely if the student uses a 700-gram car instead?

A 700-gram car would have less kinetic energy at point X and less potential energy at the bottom of the racetrack
