Physics in Roller Coasters There is a lot of Physics in a roller coaster. It contains a lot of potential and kinetic energy‚ and also centripetal force. All of these factors will define how the roller coaster really works. As we all know‚ or some of us know‚ roller coasters doesn’t use engine to operate the ride. It depends on converting potential energy into kinetic energy. Cars will need a certain amount of pull or push to reach a certain peek of the track. Upon reaching the peak‚ the energy

Gabrino‚ Juan Miguel M. ENGPHY1‚ 1. As I observed while riding both the Dodgem and Bump n’ Splash the direction of the force when my friends bumped me was same with the direction where the car of my friends are headed. According to Newton’s second law‚ an object that experiences an unbalance force will accelerate in the direction of the unbalanced force. 2. While riding the wheel of fate while it is continuously moving I felt the greatest acceleration at the bottom of the Ferris wheel

Section A How does the engine size(capacity) of a motor car relate to the acceleration of the car? Hypothesis: The acceleration of a car will increase if the size(capacity) of the engine increases. The car with the biggest engine capacity will take the fastest to reach the velocity of 60km/h from rest position. Method: 1) Arrange to use three different hatchback cars with different engine capacities‚ but
