    10 m/s

    Explanation:

    The potential energy of the roller coaster is converted to kinetic energy. According to law of transformation of energy, potential energy = kinetic energy.

    mgh = ½mv². Take g as 10m/s².

    150 * 10 * 50 = ½ * 150 * v².

    7500 = 75v².

    v² = 7500/75.

    v = √100.

    v = 10 m/s.
