Loops on Roller Coasters primarily rely on gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy. As the coaster climbs to the top of a loop, it gains gravitational potential energy, which is converted to kinetic energy as it descends. The speed and momentum generated during the descent enable the coaster to maintain enough energy to successfully navigate the loop without falling off. Additionally, factors like friction and the design of the loop play roles in ensuring a smooth ride.

How do you get over your fear of loops on roller coasters?
A couple months ago I went on my first roller coaster, so I know how scary it can be! I would recommend always going with a friend or family member who can ride with you. It helps to ask them questions about the ride if they've been on it before, so you can know more about it. Before you go on a ride, tell yourself it's gonna be okay! You'll have a blast when you're done, trust me. When I got off my first roller coaster I asked myself, 'why was I so scared'? Also, here's what I've heard about why people are scared to go on roller coasters: Your mind is telling you that going so fast and upside down would normally hurt you, so it makes you feel like its dangerous so you wont want to go on it. But if you can look past that fear and realize it's NOT dangerous, it's totally fun!

What kind of energy happens when a roller coaster reaches the very top of the track just brfore it starts back down?
At the top of the track, the roller coaster has mostly potential energy due to its height above the ground. As it starts back down, this potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy as the coaster picks up speed.
What kind of force is used to propel a roller coaster?
Drive tires are often used in one of two ways on roller coasters. ... tires push the train upwards; a cable lift system as seen on Millennium Force; ... The linear induction motor is a simple but powerful type of electric motor used to propel the cars.
What kind of roller coaster is top thrill dragster?
Not quite sure what you mean by "what type" but IntaminAG (the builder) calls these types of coasters "Accelerator Coasters". It is not a roller coaster- it is a flat ride- as are real dragsters. the dragsters run on a track and it is believed to be connected to something like the feed rod- threaded in a worm pattern and under power- of a lather. thus, the cars cannot get out of control Such a lengthy feed-rod would make for an expensive ride to engineer and concievably maintain, they are not a very common ride. I have never seen them.
