    not think he would have let me though‚ at this point early on‚ when I have only been going to driving school for about two weeks. He loves his car a lot‚ so much so that no one else gets to drive it‚ with only me as the first exception. I can recall how much anxiety I saw in his eyes‚ as he sat there on the passenger seat while I was manning the car. My dad‚ being the conservative and old-fashioned person that he is‚ has all of his cars with manual transmissions. And a newbie like me that is tasked

The rolling cart with only a bar to hold me in was terrifying. What if-- what if I slipped out? What if I hit my head on an overhead track

    Physics behind roller coasters Energy can be converted from one from to another. When the car is still‚ the energy which is acting on it is GPE (gravitational potential energy). The car starts to accelerate towards the peak. The energy is converted from GPE to Kinetic energy. The car is at the peak. The energy transfers from Kinetic energy to GPE. The car starts to go down. The energy transfers again from GPE to Kinetic energy. There is no kinetic energy when the car is still at the bottom‚ as
