Brief Explanations
When speeding down the rollercoaster drop, the rollercoaster (and Andre) is in motion. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy is stored energy (like due to height, which would be more relevant at the top of the drop before moving down). So as they speed down, the energy associated with their motion is kinetic energy.
