Task 2 1. The maximum potential energy would be at the highest point of the coaster which is 61m at point A. The equation for potential energy is: PE=mgh. Throughout the trip‚ the mass and gravity are constant variables while height is a changeable variable. Therefore‚ if the height is increased then so is the potential energy. The maximum kinetic energy is at B. This is because as the cars lose height‚ they speed up (v=d/t). Therefore‚ most of their original potential energy (due to the height)

MY FIRST PLANE RIDE ALONE My internal organs thumped against my chest as I dragged my bag along the floor and into the corridor. As I walked into the hall‚ I glanced up and notice the sign I could get on. My entire body could barely hold itself together with the anticipation of the dream come-true event about to take place. I said to myself‚ “I’ll soon be in the air alone without my family”. I slowed my pace to further enjoy what was happening. Swarms of people walked around me knowing that one

I’ve decided to base my Oral Presentation on “The Taxi Ride” (by P.E.R.) on the main character and on some of her characteristics. My presentation will try to focus on a sort of recapitulation of the reasons Helen Jones’ life appears to be significantly praiseworthy.

I think Star Wars is better than Star Trek. Why? It’s simple. Star Trek is for wimps! Yes‚ I said it. WIMPS!

Not a lot happens and there isn’t a lot of action. In other words‚ there isn’t a lot of fighting and intensity. Star Wars is high intensity and loaded with actions! It is full of colorful characters and you watch it on the big screen.
