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

There are many functions of roller coasters such as the chain lift‚ catapult-launch lift etc. The first component is the chain lift the chain lift is a series of connected carts that move on tracks. The train has no engine nor power source the power is gravity and momentum. To build up this momentum(potential energy) the train needs to get to the top of the hill. The lifting mechanism is a long length of chain that runs up the hill under the track. The chain is a fasten loop and the chain on the

Designing my roller coaster was pretty interesting. My roller coaster ended up being called the bombora extrandgana. My roller coaster has two crazy big loops and and 100 foot drop and some seat throwing turns. Let me tell you about my roller coaster. My roller coaster is a minute and a half for the average speed. Well getting into detail on the ride has some very descriptive vocabulary words. The feeling when you you first go onto the ride and you’re super scared but that’s not all. The scientific
