Reviewing the Physics of Roller Coasters
Devang Singh, Anushka Srivatsan
Abstract: This paper aims to explain the intricacies of the application of a wide range of mechanical physics concepts utilised in the construction of roller coasters. The topics under consideration in this article are the Law of Conservation of Energy, Newton?s Laws of Motion, functioning of clothoid loop - the - loops and effects along with utilisation of aerodynamic drag. The researchers have taken some of the conventional concepts of classical mechanics, describing how one of the most well - renowned amusement park rides arose from the building blocks of physics.
Keywords: conservation of energy, laws of motion, clothoid loops, air drag, safety mechanics
