A student creates a model of a roller coaster to demonstrate energy transformation. She places the roller coaster car at the highest point and lets it go. The car rolls forward and completes the course with no additional energy.

What energy transformation can the student describe as occurring between point X and point Y?

• Kinetic changes to potential, then some potential changes to thermal.

  
  

• Potential changes to kinetic, then some kinetic changes to potential.

  
  

• Kinetic changes to potential, then some potential changes to kinetic.

  
  

• Thermal changes to potential, then some potential changes to thermal.
