The coaster is momentarily at rest with 60 thousand joules of gravitational potential energy at point B. The coaster then coasts down the first hill and reaches point C at

ground level. The cart then coasts up the second hill and arrives at point D with a height half as tall as the first hill, Between points B and C, 10 thousand joules of energy are transferred to the environment through sound and heat. Between points C and D, another 10 thousand joules of energy are transferred to the environment through sound and heat. On the bar graph below, slide the bars to indicate the quantity of the coaster's mechanical energy (ME) at point B, point C, and point D.
