Why don't you fall down when you are riding on roller coaster?
According to Newton's first law of motion, a body will continue in its state of uniform motion along a straight line when there is no net force acting on it. That means if the roller coaster is under no external forces, it would move in a straight line tangential to the track. However, there should be forces acting on it because its direction of motion changes. Assuming that the mass of the roller coaster is, it is moving at a velocity, and the track is circular with a radius, the centripetal force required would be
Is gravatational energy kinetic or potential energy?
Gravatational and Potential Energys are the same, they simply both have the potential to fall (its higher up) and Kintic Energy is was is created when for example a roller coaster moves?! I has Kinetic Energy and some is lost throughout sound and heat as thats is another type pf energy that is created when a roller coaster moves.
