When is the velocity constant during a roller coaster ride?
Velocity is constant when the middle of the roller coaster is parallel with the ground (when the tangent of the curve the roller coaster is on has a slope of 0 at the center of mass of the roller coaster).
How do you build a roller coaster on roller coaster tycoon 3?
See the straight coaster picture and curve ones? Click on them to build a piece. Its the same as the turn tracks and straights.
What is the type of friction on a curve of a roller coaster?
Kinetic or centrifugal, depening what phase you are on.
What forces act on a roller coaster car as it moves around a sharp curve?
inertia, centrifugal force
If you have scoliosis should you avoid going on roller coasters?
The impact of a roller coaster could cause some back pain for you. It depends on the severity of your curve. If it is a minor curve (under 30 degrees), you will probably be fine. But as always check with your doctor.
The platfrom with the sharpest curve raidus in the whole of the London Underground network?
The Wollstonecraft railway station is the platform with the sharpest curve radius in the whole of the London Underground network.
When traveling around a curve in a car on a roller coaster how do you explain what feels like a force pushing you outward?
inertia. because inertia keeps things going in a straight line, and that kind of throws it forward, but the direction of "foward" keeps changing as the car or roller coaster turns.
How and where are centripetal and centrifugal forces applied in a roller coaster?
-- A centripetal force must be applied to the coaster whenever it's supposed to move in a curved path, whether a horizontal or vertical curve. -- Centrifugal force doesn't exist.
Why is friction an important factor in building a roller coaster?
To secure it onto the tracks when in motion, to prevent it from slipping off the tracks when rounding a curve, and to make it slow down and stop in an emergency.
When did the roller coaster come to the US?
The roller coaster was designed and patented by Edwin Prescott of Arlington, Massachusetts on 16 August 1898. It was named by the U.S. patent office as "the pleasure railway." The first design was a simple one which included just a single circular loop. The design caused an uncomfortable shock to passengers as the car entered the loop, so was hardly a pleasure to ride. Subsequently, in 1901 a loop-the-loop centrifugal railway was patented by Prescott. The new roller coaster was more comfortable to ride as it replaced the rough approach to the loop with a gentler curve, and had other modifications to improve the overall ride.
What the fastest roller coaster?
It's called the spooky zone but it's not scary it's scary as in fast scary.It's a gigantic curve and it's the tallest coaster on earth! Whoo-hoo!Answer B: actually the worlds tallest, fastest, most dinamic rollercoaster is KINDA KA it's awesome it goes 160 mph but this year they upgraded it in New Jersey jacksonville, now its 185 mph i went about 2 times and 1 of the times i was in front so plz vist NJ, jacksonville. no not jacksonville Florida no the 1 in New Jersey it's up norther New Jersey thank u
What are the parts of the procedure for safely driving around a curve?
When you driving around the curve it means you are making a right turn in most of the cases. By doing that you must look to the right and over your shoulder to see for pedestrians crossing, for roller skaters or bicyclists speeding across on the sidewalk or on the road. This is for safety of driving around the curve.
