What type of motion is a roller coaster?

Roller coasters are variable motion. Something that has variable motion when they have different distances and speeds in an equal period of time.

The roller coaster takes the same track every time and only goes through it once so, it has equal time periods. By traveling at 2 different speeds during equal time periods, you have variable motion.

Where is the greatest amount of potential and kinetic energy in a roller coaster?

If it is a rollercoaster that has a first drop hill, the roller coaster has the greatest kinetic energy at the bottom of that drop. If it is magnetically launched, the kinetic energy is probably greatest immediately after the launch. However, there are cases where these statements may not be true. (i.e. a drop right after a magnetic launch)The energy is the greatest at the bottom of a drop, before some is translated back into potential energy as the car climbs the next rise.
