Like mentioned before, to make the hot wheel experiment more efficient would be better material and similarly for the rollercoaster would be a better shape of the roller coaster. This would help the efficiency of the two experiments because if the rollercoaster and car have a better shape where air gets past quickly it would lessen the resistance and friction of the car. Having a shape where there is a low amount of resistance would mean there will be less wasted energy because no friction will cause vibrations on the track.
In this passage, Katie is explaining how at school, hopper cars can be heard being loaded up with various things such as beets.
For experiment one you will be testing road surface, and seeing if it will affect the speed of the hot wheel car. Before you begin your experiment, you will need to set up your tracks. Tape the two yellow tracks together,line them up and tape the front and back. Then take the top of the track and tape it to the left side of the desk in the back of the room, be sure to tape it 72 cm high. Once you tape the top, tape the bottom of the track 97 cm away from the base of the desk. Step four is to get 40 cm of the material you are testing, the floor, sandpaper, and wax paper. Use a stopwatch to conduct three trials for each surface material, from the top of the track to the end of the surface material. Finally, record the results in a data table
and are designed out of different materials like wood and steel. Although roller coasters are fun and exciting, the questions, what allows them to twist and turn, go up and down hills at a fairly good speed? Why do they not fall off of the track when it goes through a loop? The answer to these questions and others about roller coasters lies in the application
There are two major types of roller coasters, which are defined by what their tracks are made out
Whoosh the air rushes past your neck, you start accelerating, falling straight down. If you haven’t ridden a roller coaster that is not how it feels. It gives you a feeling you can’t describe in words. Roller coasters have a rich history and are physics beacons of the world. Also the market of roller coasters is huge. Throughout my research I answered my questions. What is the history of roller coasters? What are the physics of roller coasters? How much do roller coasters and amusement parks cost? and Why are roller coasters such a big market?
Roller coasters are the bomb. Would people still enjoy amusement parks if they knew the danger of them? Roller coasters cause deaths and severe injuries. In one year, there’s 350 injuries on roller coasters. It’s like an injury a day! Now, it’s much rarer, because the technology is safer, but there’s always a slight risk. Inspectors notice that most injuries or deaths are from rides over twenty years old. One coaster is less than 10 years old. Amusement parks are fun, but can be life threatening.
What do you think about when you're on a roller coaster? Do you ever think how you're being pulled up this huge hill or down the hill?
The ride I designed is featuring the ninja turtles. I created this roller coaster for people that are adventurous and looking for a cool and fun ride. When I ride this ride it feels so amazing you go so fast and the loops are so much fun. Every loop is something new but there's only four loops so get on and you will have a blast. The four loops include Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo. My ride reaches speeds up to 78 MPH! The start and end of my ride is where the train cart uses friction. The friction is used when it is coming to a stop. What does friction do? Friction is the surface or object rubbing against one another. The start of my ride shoots off at 78 mph and you have to make sure your head is against the seat because
our lives are a roller coaster ride with ups and downs good times and bad, but have you ever wondered why you might make the decisions you do? Some experts believe that our brains are wired to think of our lives as stories. They also believe they decisions we make are designed to make our story better. our stories give us a way to cope with the present whether it be good or bad. humans never want to be average humans want to be something great. the quest for something better than the rest. in a way our stories are a roller coaster and only you can change where it ends
1. What is your possible topic? Fad Diets: how dangerous can be fad diets to your health in short and long term? If fad diets are dangerous why are they so popular? If I want to lose weight which is the best way to do it? Are there any record of illnesses cause by this type of diet? Are some of these diets true and the mainstream are saying us that they are dangerous for our health?
Individuals love to go to the amusement parks and try out the rides that are available. The most common and thrilling ride is the roller coaster. An amusement park is not an amusement park if it does not contain a roller coaster. What makes these roller coasters so fun that every amuse parks has one. A lot of people would say it is their extreme high speeds that makes it very exciting. That is a valid answer, but it is the wrong answer. The speed has nothing to do with the excitement. It is more than likely that most people travel faster on their ride along the highway on the way to the amusement park than they would in a roller coaster. Basically the thrill all comes from the acceleration and the feeling of weightlessness that they
Which mass of marble would travel down a roller coaster the fastest? Well It starts with Newton´s laws of motion. The first law of motion states that a force has to be applied to an object to make it accelerate. The second is a formula that calculates how much force is needed to accelerate an object and how it changes according to the mass. Also third states that there´s a equal and opposite reaction for every action. That means that in every interaction, there are acting forces on the two interacting objects(Jeff, Zeilinski)
Some new advances in roller coasters are cables and chains. By adding cables and chains roller coasters can keep the carts from falling off. Roller coasters have come a long way from wood carts and ice.
In a park near you very soon a roller coaster will be drawing near...furthermore, not only is there a roller coaster that has never been seen before but also the most magnificent coaster that you've seen. The Looper...The Looper is one of the fastest roller coasters in all of Hershey Park. It speeds in excess of 70 miles per hour. When you are riding The Looper you will feel countless different feelings. As a matter of fact, you will feel not only ecstatic and delighted but also thrill and suspense. Not to mention that as the experience of the unique exhilarating , unforgettable thrills comes to an end, you will surely feel mourning. Be that as it may, you always have the privilege to jump back in line and do it all over again. Riders will feel the anxious anticipation as they wait in line. Not to mention, the force of the g forces as the train screams by the other rides nearby. You will experience pure speed and adrenaline as your heart starts racing as the train accelerates before plunging down
The topic I connected to Global Politics and Environmental Science is Donald Trumps opinion about climate change. Ever since Donald Trump became president, there has been a denial from him about this issue because he thinks it’s a hoax. More specifically he tweeted on November 6th 2012 saying “The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive” and he also doesn’t believe climate change even exists. I agree that global warming and climate change do both exist and they also impact our environment. Global warming is the ongoing rise and change in temperature near the Earth’s surface which can also change the pattern of the climate. Climate change is happening everyday because of
