Roller Coasters

Beside the parking lot.

I know its not safe if you want to know specifics on why ask your doctor.

When riding a roller coaster, there it a thing called G force. This gives you the effect of felling weightless or double your weight. I think a pregnant woman wouldn't be able to ride a roller coaster because the different pressures would harm or affect the baby.

I'm not sure...............................................Is it te Hulk Roller Coaster? I'm not sure...............................................Is it te Hulk Roller Coaster?

the fastest coaster is ring racer and the tallest is kingda ka

There is 1 in 300 million chance of dying in a roller coaster accident. You have better chance of dying from heart disease, cancer, or even crossing the street. ^And usually that's because people get on with heart problems or other health risks, OR from stupid people on wooden coasters that have looser fit lapbars that wedge themselves out to stand up.

lets just say that's it's alot like thousands and maybe millions depends how good it is!............

The fastest roller coaster in the United States of America is Kingda Ka in Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey. It uses hydraulic motors to launch the trains along a horizontal section of track from zero to 128 mph in an 3.5 seconds. It is also the tallest roller coaster in the world, being 456 feet tall and having a drop of 418 feet.

The fastest roller coaster in the world is Formula Rossa, which is located at Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It is launched from zero to 149 mph in approximately 4.9 seconds. It is 171 feet high and has a drop of 166 feet. Due to the high air speeds and the subsequent risk of an impact with airborne particulates or insects, all riders are required to wear protective glasses similar to those used during sky diving.

Centripetal force might work. When a roller-coaster train goes around a loop, centripetal force keeps it from falling down, and propels it outward. Well, that and some extra wheels, but you know what I mean.

In the last few sections, we looked at the forces and machinery that send roller c­oasters rocketing around elaborate courses. As you move over the hills, valleys and loops of the track, the forces on you seem to change constantly, pulling you in all directions. But why is this rollicking movement so enjoyable (or, for some people, so nauseating)?

­To understand the sensations you feel in a roller coaster, let's look at the basic forces at work on your body. Wherever you are on Earth, gravity is pulling you down toward the ground. But the force you actually notice isn't this downward pull -- it's the upward pressure of the ground underneath you. The ground stops your descent to the center of the planet. It pushes up on your feet, which push up on the bones in your legs, which push up on your rib cage and so on. This is the feeling of weight. At every point on a roller-coaster ride, gravity is pulling you straight down.

The other force acting on you is acceleration. When you are riding in a coaster car that is traveling at a constant speed, you only feel the downward force of gravity. But as the car speeds up or slows down, you feel pressed against your seat or the restraining bar.

You feel this force because your inertia is separate from that of the coaster car. When you ride a roller coaster, all of the forces we've discussed are acting on your body in different ways.

Newton's first law of motion states that an object in motion tends to stay in motion. That is, your body will keep going at the same speed in the same direction unless some other force acts on you to change that speed or direction. When the coaster speeds up, the seat in the cart pushes you forward, accelerating your motion. When the cart slows down, your body naturally wants to keep going at its original speed. The harness in front of you accelerates your body backward, slowing you down.

They don't.

No seriously, they look terrifying but when you go on them it just feels like sitting down normally, maybe a little bit of weightlessness and seeing the sky ( or whatevers around you ) spin round once. You come off your seat a little bit but if you hold on tight it doesn't feel as strange. Roller Coasters in the dark are a little scarier because the loops are unexpected. At least you are safe locked in big, bulky restraints. :-)
well if you live in vancouver bc playland or pne has a rollercoaster called corkscrew and it goes up side down and you don't even notise but thats my opinion

The world's first roller coaster with inversions is Corkscrew at Knott's Berry Farm. The world's first roller coaster with a loop is Revolution at Six Flags Magic Mountain.

Potential energy being turned into kinetic energy

To build potential energy, which is converted to kinetic energy upon descent. The higher up the roller coaster climbs, the more potential energy it builds, thus having more kinetic energy upon descent. Since there are no motors or engines, roller coasters are reliant on this back & forth transfer of energy.

Gravity

It depends what the triggers are for your epilepsy. The BEST advice - would be to consult your doctor. They would be able to tell you whether it's safe for you to go on one. Additionally - they may issue you with a letter giving you the 'all clear' - just in case the parks owners are sceptical about letting you ride.

Why would they? Mine have never just fallen out unless I stare at something for about 2 minutes. I have ridden a rollar coaster with mine in, and they stayed in. If you are very concerned about this, you might want to just ask your eye doctor next time you go in to buy more contact lenses.

Water swirls down a drain because the hole that the water is sucked down into is small to create a tornato. Water swirls down a drain because of gravity force. Water swirls down a drain because the world rotates all the time, creating a round or swirl movement in a drain.

The rollercoaster with the most loops is Colossus. It is located in Chertsey, England. It has ten inversions. A roller coaster that has tied this record is Tenth Ring Rollercoaster, but it has the same track.

it would be the energy that is slowly increasing
