    favourite rides: ‘Kaboom’ (which works based on free-fall) and the roller coaster.  The Physics of Roller Coasters How does a Roller Coaster work? Roller coasters have no engines (although many still tend to think they do) and are thus not propelled around the track by a motor. The transfer of potential energy to kinetic energy is what steers the roller coaster‚ and all of the kinetic energy required for the ride is present once the coaster goes down the first ‘hill’.

Today’s roller coasters appear to be tons of tubular metal intertwined around itself‚ but regardless of how big‚ fast‚ or gravity defying they are‚ they all use the same natural force – gravity. The more twisting‚ turning‚ flipping‚ and the faster a roller coaster goes‚ the more the coaster depends on the law of physics‚ not mechanics‚ to keep it moving. There
