What else can I help you with?
Why does a roller coaster with more people in it will travel much faster than an empty car?
A roller-coaster would go faster with more people in it because with moer people the better the ride alsothe people that are ridding will give the roller-coaster potential energy. A roller-coaster would go slower with an empty car will give the roller-coaster kinetic energy than with peolpe in it.
What beer commercial has a guy screaming on a roller coaster?
Miller Lite
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.
Where is potential energy on a roller coaster?
When the roller coaster is at its highest position and is not moving then its potential energy is highest
On a Roller Coaster where is the potential energy?
When the roller coaster is at its highest position and is not moving then its potential energy is highest
Where is the kinetic energy the highest on a roller coaster?
The cars of a roller coaster reach their maximum kinetic energy when at the bottom of their path.
Is a roller coaster the only example of a closed energy system?
No, the roller coaster is not the only example of a closed energy system.
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)
Where is potential energy the highest on a roller coaster?
The potential energy is highest at the top of the first hill or peak of the roller coaster because it is at its maximum height above the ground. As the roller coaster descends, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the car gains speed.
How does energy usage of a model roller coaster compare to energy usage of a real roller coaster?
The model uses less energy than the real one does.
How much mechanical energy is at the top of a roller coaster?
It depends on the roller coaster's height,speed,and location. :p
How is energy transferred from potential to kinetic on a roller coaster?
Energy is transferred from potential to kinetic on a roller coaster as the coaster descends from a higher elevation to a lower elevation. As the coaster moves downwards, gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. This energy transfer allows the coaster to gain speed and momentum.
