Riding a roller coaster has its ups and downs. In comparison‚ loving someone has some of the same characteristics. In relationships‚ no one is going to be perfect. For example‚ if a man cheats on his wife‚ that is like going up a steep hill on a roller coaster. Many people never know if their relationship is going to make it over the top. Going down hill on a roller coaster is an example of a relationship that is going well. Going down hill on a roller coaster can also be unexpected. This could be

Hannah Wilson Can you imagine being on a roller coaster having a great time and then bam the person in front of you go flying out of there cart well that’s something a few people witnessed In an accident in late July a 52 year old women fell over 75ft to her death from the Texas giant in six flags in Dallas this Saturday the ride is going to reopen for the first time sense this incident. Several people have began filing lawsuits against the theme park because they state the ride is still unsafe

What if you loved someone so much but they didn’t know you existed? You could change so much that you lose yourself in the mix. In the short story‚ “Nobody Stole Jason Grayson” by Caroline Mackler‚ the theme of the story is that love can make you do strange things. The characters‚ Abby‚ Jason‚ Daytona‚ and Sloppy Joe all deal with someone that they have fallen for. They also have some reality checks along the way. Each character has an interaction that teaches them what love really is‚ or what love

almost all roller coasters only rely on Earth’s gravity to get the cars down the track? Roller coasters are centered all on physics and I will hopefully teach you some things‚ big or small about them today. In this essay we will be exploring the world of roller coasters. Some of the topics we will cover will range from the history‚ to the principles that allow the cars to continue throughout the length of the track‚ and the general physics surrounding roller coasters. The history of roller coasters

As the height of the roller coaster increases‚ the speed of the marble decreases; and vice versa. When the height of the roller coaster is at it’s peak‚ the highest point‚ and the motion of the marble is going uphill; the speed has less kinetic energy than it has potential. The potential energy is being stored up‚ as the marble’s velocity is at an upward motion. Once the ball reaches the highest point and starts moving in a downwards motion‚ it releases the stored energy and gains kinetic energy

Have you ever ridden a roller coaster and felt the weird feeling in your stomach when the cart goes downhill very quickly? The physics of roller coasters are the reason for this. Roller Coasters have gone through many different designs and built different ways in the past. Engineers working on these coasters have to consider the many ways gravity and acceleration affect the riders and the coaster. This author recently has experienced this very process of creating a roller coaster‚ and had an interesting

types of roller coasters ranging from inverted ones to standing up roller coasters. The types of coasters that I will talk about today is the wooden‚ steel‚ inverted‚ and standing up roller coasters. First of all‚ the wooden roller coaster has its perks and it’s difficulties. This kind gives a swaying feeling that is supposed to make the passengers feel “unsafe”. Successfully‚ this action will make the experience have more of an adrenaline feel. A problem with this type of roller coaster is that

yourself how a roller coaster works? Would roller coasters safely run without the knowledge that physics offers us? The answer is no. Roller coasters are driven by physics; it mobilizes and gives its riders amusement through forces such as inertia‚ gravitation‚ and centripetal forces and utilizes different types of energies such as potential and kinetic energy. Physics is what makes roller coasters safe and effective. It is not only the high speed of the trains of a roller coaster that makes the

measurements‚ calculating the sizes‚ weighing‚ measuring the safety‚ looking at statistics‚ and calculating the force‚ speed‚ and motion. Trigonometry‚ algebra‚ geometry and calculus all take a huge role helping out in forming these models. Roller coasters first originated in the 16th and 17th centuries by the Russians. They would create sleds made of ice or wood and slide down slopes. The French were amused with this pass time that they actually took the idea back with them home. On HowStuffWorks

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
