What does a roller coaster do?
Well, to understand what a roller coaster does you will need to understand what a roller coaster is. A roller coaster is a small vehicle that runs along a fixed track. What a roller coaster does is move along that fixed track at very high speeds, and many people find this very thrilling And if your wondering how a roller coaster works Well, there are 2 types of roller coaster, most commonly the Chain Lift, The chain lift works by hooks on the bottom of the roller coaster car that hook on to a roller chain (the type of chain you would find on a bicycle) and the chain pulls you all the way to the top of the big hill, This is the part where you hear all the clicking. As you start going down the big hill the hooks simply slide out of the chain and gravity starts to take over, but the roller coaster can stay moving because of Kinetic energy and Potential energy. So the 3 things that are very important to a Roller Coaster are Kinetic energy, Potential energy, and gravity. A roller coaster works sort of like rolling a ball down a hill.
