Physics in Roller Coasters

Physics in Roller Coasters

By Joseph Bagan






























When we think of amusement park rides, the first thing that pops into our minds is roller coasters. They are thrilling, action packed, they make our stomachs drop, and provide a lot of fun. However, roller coasters are not only a way to have fun with your friends and family. Roller coasters encompass a variety of concepts in physics that the majority of people don't even seem to realize.  Whether it be a conversion of energy, or the use of Newton's Laws, Roller coasters use physics more then they may seem.
