    For the Giant drop ride if you wanted to find the final velocity you would multiply the acceleration of gravity‚ which is 9.81m/s/s‚ times the amount of time it took for you to fall. This equation is Vf(velocity final)=Vi(velocity initial)+a(acceleration)*t(time). Since the initial velocity of the drop is zero we don’t have to worry about adding that on. The final velocity comes out to be about 84 miles/hour. This equation says nothing about mass or weight meaning that the weight of the passengers

    No two journeys are alike‚ because the knowledge and experiences gained differ for each person. One of the texts I have chosen to study is the song Drops of Jupiter written my Pat Nonhuman‚ performed by Train. The song is about a dream that the writer had about his mother who had recently passed. The line ’She’s back in the atmosphere’ was the first line written‚ and led to him writing the song as an extended metaphor of his mothers journey in the afterlife‚ and the return of her spirit to him
