You are testing a new amusement park roller coaster with an empty car with a mass of 125 kg. one part of the track is a vertical loop with a radius of 12.0 m. at the bottom of the loop (point a) the car has a speed of 25.0 m/s and at the top of the loop (point b) it has speed of 8.00 m/s.

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.
