Why does roller coaster car #2 travel a longer distance than roller coaster car #1?
Because car #2 has more potential energy at the start of the experiment.
An experiment has been set up to show the mechanical energy of a car moving down a ramp. Which factor is different between the two proposed experimental situations?
The height from which the wagon is released.

The Law of Conservation of Energy states:
Energy can neither be created, nor be destroyed. It can only be converted from one form to another.
An experiment has been set up to show the mechanical energy of a car moving down a ramp. Does the coaster car's potential energy affect the distance it will travel?
Yes, since the distance the coaster car travels depends on its speed, and its speed depends on initial potential energy at the top of the ramp.
Which object has more kinetic energy? A truck with a mass of 1,900 kg and a speed of 50 mph or a motorcycle with a mass of 900 kg and a speed of 50 mph?
A truck with a mass of 1,900 kg and a speed of 50 mph
