On a roller coaster, energy changes from potential to kinetic energy and back again many times over the course of a ride. Kinetic energy is energy that an object has as a result of its motion. ... Traditionally, the coaster cars are pulled up the first hill by a chain; as the cars climb, they gain potential energy.

The driver and front seat passengers should sit at least _____ inches away from the air bag.

To do its important job, an air bag comes out of the dashboard at up to 200 mph, faster than the blink of an eye. It is estimated around 10 inches of space to inflate. The force of an air bag can hurt those who are too close to it. Driver and front seat passengers should be moved as far back as practical, mainly people of short built. It is highly suggested that you be seated no less than 10 inches away from the air bag. Therefore, the answer is letter b.
