The minimum velocity required for a roller coaster to successfully complete a loop depends on factors such as the size of the loop and the gravitational force acting on the coaster. In general, the velocity must be sufficient to counteract the force of gravity and ensure that the coaster does not lose contact with the track at the top of the loop. This velocity is typically calculated using the centripetal force formula.

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).


When would a roller coaster velocity change?

Going up and down


How does velocity change as the slope of the roller coaster gets steeper?

You're not giving quite enough information. At the moment you are interested in, is the roller coaster moving freely on the track, or is it under the control of a cog or other system? Is the roller coaster on its way down an incline, or on its way up?

What would happen if rollercoster went 1000mph?

When does a roller coaster increase kinetic energy?

A roller coaster increases kinetic energy when it is going downhill, as gravity is pulling it down and accelerating it. The potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the roller coaster gains speed.

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


Why do the hills of a coaster decrease in height throughout the ride?

The hills in the track of a roller coaster gradually decline in height due to the speed and friction the train of the coaster is receiving. As the friction of the tracks affect the train, it begins to lose its momentum. The heights of the hills decrease so the train can successfully make it from start to finish.
