    The slower you go, you will eventually stop, p. energy. faster=k. energy.

    Your kinetic energy is always proportional to the square of your speed,

    no matter whether you're on a bicycle, a roller coaster, or a baby carriage.

    The faster you're moving, the more kinetic energy you have.

    Your potential energy doesn't depend on speed at all, only on height.

    On a roller coaster, the minimum speeds are usually at the top of a hill

    or a loop, so the potential energy would generally correspond to the

    slowest speeds. But again, that's not because of the speed. It's because

    of the height.
