A roller coaster (375 kg) moves from A (5.00 m above the ground) to B (20.0 m above the ground). Two non-conservative forces are present: friction does 2.00\times 104 J of work on the car, and a chain mechanism does +3.00\times 104 J of work to help the car up a long climb. What is the change in the cars kinetic energy, KE = KEf KEo, from A to B?
