Not really. Newtons laws basically are:
1. an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by a force
2. force equals mass times acceleration
3. every reaction has an equal and opposite reaction
Roller Coasters are, however, a good example of conservation of energy.

∙ 14y agoNo the second law is Force= Mass X Acceleration. It would be a good example for the first law of motion though

several points during its run demonstrates each of Newton's laws of motion.

How does newtons third law relate to a roller coaster?
Whenever one object exerts a force on a second object the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first. Since a roller coaster is on a ramp, the ramp has to support the (apparently larger) weight of the roller coaster, especially when it turns it back up against gravity at the bottom of each incline. The rollers on each car also prevent the cars from leaving the track on turns, by exerting a controlling force using the sides and upper half of the track.
How does Newton's Third Law relate to a rollercoaster?
Newton's second law (Force equals mass times acceleration, F = ma) deals with acceleration so it "takes effect" every time that the roller coaster speeds up, slows down or turns (horizontally or vertically).Basically Newton's second law just says that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force applied to the object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. Or, in other words, the harder you push the faster it speeds up and the bigger it is the slower it speeds up (or slows down - deceleration is an acceleration).This means that in your roller coaster example, the object is the roller coaster and the force can be: The motors that start the coaster and lift it up hills. The brakes that slow it down. Gravity which pulls it down the hills. The rails and wheels which cause the roller coaster to turn around bends, etc. At each of these points, Newton's second law is at play, determining how much acceleration will result from the force applied to the roller coaster's mass.
Is jumping on a trampoline an example of newtons third law of motion?
yes. newtons 3rd law is: "FOR EVERY ACTION THERE IS AN EQUAL AND OPPOSITE REACTION"
How often does Newton's third law of motion happen?
Always. Evey object in the universe is experiencing Newtons third law. Just by sitting in your chair motionless you are experiencing Newtons third law.
What are not examples of newtons third law?
A birthday cake.
What is the third biggest wooden roller coaster in the world?
the third fastest coaster is located in Nevada, if you go to Primm you can see the large drop it is called the Desperado its like 150 mph no loops or anything just a lot of vomit and lost phones so if you are gonna go on it prepare for a headache.

Does Bizzarro roller coaster have the third highest peak in the world?
No, Superman: escape from Krypton does. I belive Bizzarro is from 10th to 20th. Don't really remember.
Is sonar the biggest roller coaster in the UK?
No: The ride reaches a maximum height of 62.5 m (205 ft), which makes it the third tallest roller coaster in Europe after Silver Star and Pepsi Max Big One. Go to this link for more information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stealth_(roller_coaster)

What is sir isaac newtons third law of motion?
His third law is For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. An example of this is the principle of jet propulsion or the movement of a squid using its siphon
