Kenetic energy, potential energy
I can say one thing definetly no solar powered energy
Mechanical energy is used on the chains that pull the roller coaster cars up the tallest incline, which is typically located at the start of the track. Mechanical energy is also used in the braking system that slows the cars to a stop at the end of the track.
The Firehawk roller coaster is a roller coaster found at Kings Island in Mason, Ohio. Originally, the ride was called X-Flight when Kings Island was called Six Flags of World Adventure.
The Answer Can No be found
The tallest roller coaster is Kingda Ka, found at Six Flags Great Adventure in the US.
The Oldest roller coaster is Leap The Dips located in Lakemont Park, Altoona, Pennsylvania, USA which is Closed in 1985, reopened in 1999. It was originally built in 1902.
The longest steel roller coaster is the Steel Dragon in Nagashima Spaland, Japan. It is 2,479 meters (8,133 ft) long. The longest wooden roller coaster is The Beast at Paramount's Kings Island near Cincinnati, Ohio. It is 2,243.023 meters (7,359 ft) long.
The Xcelerator is a roller coaster found at Knott's Berry farm in Buena Park, California. It is found in the Boardwalk sections of the park and opened in 2002.
That's hard to say. I mean, some of those roller coastesr for kids can be very slow. The slowest that I found through my research was Gemini Jr. at 6 mph.
There is a lot to be found in Primm, Nevada. There is a large shopping mall called Fashion Outlet of Las Vegas. A popular attraction is Buffalo Bill's which is a casino with a large roller coaster that loops round the building. Primm was featured in the Fallout New Vegas game, in which Buffalo Bill's was called Bison Steve and was complete with the roller coaster.
The energy doesn't really affect the roller coaster as much as the coaster affects the energy. Potential energy is highest and kinetic energy is lowest at the crest of the roller coaster (top of the hill), then later changed to kinetic energy as it moves down into the trough (bottom). Kinetic energy is greatest and potential energy due to gravity is lowest at the trough. Also remember that KE = 1/2(mass)(velocity)2 and that GPE or potential energy due to gravity = (mass)(9.8 m/s2)(height)
-A coaster that can be taken apart and moved. They are usually found at carnivals. Olympia Looping in Germany is the largest, with 5 loops. -There used to be a roller coaster track that people could drive their car on. -A long time ago there was a roller coaster that jumped a gap, but it was banned because the jump would vary according to the weight of the people. -The longest wooden coaster is Beast at Kings Island. -Best spots for certain thrills on rides: Front: Best view, more of an overall thrill Middle: Best spot for "Air time" Back: More time going down hills and an over-all rougher ride -Batman: The Ride at Six Flags Great America in Gurnee, Illinois was the first inverted roller coaster. -The roller coaster originated from the German Ice Slide. here are six, not ten.
