    Part 1 Roller coasters Additional notes: GPE = m x g x h KE = m x v₂ The main energy transfers that happen as a car travels along the track from the start of the ride to the end: [1]The rollercoaster car gains gravitational potential energy (GPE) as it travels to the top. Once over the top‚ the car gains speed as GPE is transferred to kinetic energy (KE). As it travels to the top of another loop‚ KE is transferred to GPE. Not all the energy is transferred to or from GPE – some is transferred

    emotional roller coaster ride that you can’t quite imagine. The image that came up in my mind as i was reading the poem are two rollercoasters.

It may be breath-taking but riders were obviously satisfied and happy overcoming and experiencing such ride. On the other hand‚ the other which was leveled and stable‚ was not that risky and extreme but‚ what is the point of riding a rollercoaster
