    As the height of the roller coaster increases‚ the speed of the marble decreases; and vice versa. When the height of the roller coaster is at it’s peak‚ the highest point‚ and the motion of the marble is going uphill; the speed has less kinetic energy than it has potential. The potential energy is being stored up‚ as the marble’s velocity is at an upward motion. Once the ball reaches the highest point and starts moving in a downwards motion‚ it releases the stored energy and gains kinetic energy

    Part 1 Roller coasters Additional notes: GPE = m x g x h KE = m x v₂ The main energy transfers that happen as a car travels along the track from the start of the ride to the end: [1]The rollercoaster car gains gravitational potential energy (GPE) as it travels to the top. Once over the top‚ the car gains speed as GPE is transferred to kinetic energy (KE). As it travels to the top of another loop‚ KE is transferred to GPE. Not all the energy is transferred to or from GPE – some is transferred
