Coaster Physics by https://padlet.com/mcmiranda4/BrendenMirandaCoster en-us 2014-04-07 19:51:55 UTC 2024-05-30 03:06:04 UTC hello@padlet.com Definitions for physics mcmiranda4 https://padlet.com/mcmiranda4/BrendenMirandaCoster/wish/25649811 Acceleration: The rate at which the direction or speed changes within a certain Mount if time is acceleration, a roller coaster uses acceleration to speed us.

Centripetal and Centrifugal forces: Centripetal force being pushed inwards and centrifugal is force being pushed out wards, on a roller coaster during a loop both forces are used to keep you in your seat while going upside down at fast speeds

"g": a unit used for acceleration, equal to the acceptation caused by gravity.

Momentum: Any mass in motion has momentum, momentum depends on velocity and mass.

Weightlessness: The feeling of no external forces acting on your body.

Friction: Friction relates to roller coasters because friction makes the roller coaster go faster.

Kinetic energy: Energy that is being used

Energy is measured in Joules

Some historians say the first real roller coaster was built under the orders of Russia's Cathrine the great in the gardens of Oranienbaum.

Steel Dragon 2000 is an hypercoaster designed by Steve Okamoto and Morgan Manufacturing. A skyscraper itself, Steel Dragon 2000 rises up 318 feet and begins with a 306-foot drop that accelerates the trains to 95 mph.
