A 120-kg roller coaster cart is being tested on a new track, and a crash-test dummy is loaded into it. The roller coaster starts from rest at point A which is 35 m above the ground. The cart is observed to roll down the track to point B, which is 10 m above the ground. In your own words, what physics ideas would you be able to use to predict how fast the cart is moving at point B? What calculations would you use, what things would you be measuring, and what physics principles or laws would you use to make this calculation?
