In energy transformations when a roller coaster is at the top of the hill the kinetic energy is?
Kinetic energy comes from movement. If the roller coaster is moving at the top of the hill, it has kinetic energy. if the rollercoaster isn't moving then it has potential energy.
Why do people use magnets in roller coasters?
As far as launched coasters go, there are typically fins on the side of the coaster car. These fins pass through slits on the side of the track that have a magnetic field in them. The magnetic push or pull is what causes the train to move.
How does chemical energy work on a rollercoaster?
Chemical energy in a rollercoaster comes from the potential energy stored in the coaster's initial position which is converted to kinetic energy as the coaster moves downhill. This conversion is due to the force of gravity acting on the coaster. The kinetic energy propels the coaster along the track, and as the coaster climbs uphill, some of this kinetic energy is converted back to potential energy.
What is the longest wooden roller coaster in the US?
Son of Beast, that thing dominates the wooden coaster record books. I've been on El Toro which always comes up second.
What is the stop height on a roller coaster and how is it affected by friction and air resistance?
Oh, dude, the stop height on a roller coaster is the point where the coaster comes to a stop, usually at the end of the ride. Friction and air resistance can affect the stop height by slowing down the coaster as it moves along the track. So, like, if there's a lot of friction or air resistance, the coaster might stop at a lower height than if it was super smooth sailing.
What is a roller coaster called if it is 500 plus feet tall?
There hasn't yet been an established name. The manufacturer of the ride that breaks the record thinks of the name at the time they make the coaster. So when a 500+ foot tall coaster comes out, we will see!
What forces make roller coasters thrilling?
The rapid change and rise and fall of air pressure sends certain signals to our brain so we can feel the adrenaline that usually comes with riding a roller coaster.

Does screaming on a roller coaster really help you feel less scared?
80% of the people screaming on roller coasters are doing it because it just comes out (don't be afraid to let it out) and it makes the ride fun. And I'm guessing that you are afraid of roller coasters but to answer your question it does, it gets all the butterflies away as you go down that first drop. My first roller coaster i remember that weird feeling in my stomach and once i started screaming it went away fast. try laughing too, but screaming works best (at least with me)
How do you build a water slide on roller coaster tycoon 3?
You must have the Soaked! expansion pack to build a water slide. If you don't have it, you can't build a waterslide. And as well when you have it its like a coaster obeying those laws of physics. Tycoon3 Plantinum comes with both. Must be made into a pool
Which car of a roller coaster goes through the valleys the fastest?
If there's any point in the whole course where the cars don't all have exactly the same acceleration and speed, then they disconnect there, and the train comes apart.
How is a roller coaster scientific?
Well it's powered by electricity as it goes up but once it goes back down it's gravity that's moving it and when you go up slopes that aren't as high momentum is used to get it up. Hope this helps. ,Dakota742742
