Roller chain

A rollercoaster ride is an experience few can forget. Most people have felt the rush of adrenaline right before the final drop, some crave it while others are terrified of it. Literature is not different from roller coaster when it comes to the buildup and rising and the falling action. Not only does the plot development chart looks like a physical rollercoaster; it describes a person’s emotion throughout the ride. In Candy’s Gourlay’s Tall Story, it presented a story about a tall boy who moved…

The Circus It was a Beautiful Day on the first day of summer.

When they finnaly reached the ticket booth, they could see the big red tent, The tent was bigger than anything they've ever seen before. "Yes children, its a very large tent" said the man at the ticket booth. They were so excited to visit their first circus. They took a seat…

We went to Kings Dominion yesterday and it was really fun. I’m scared of height, so I never really ride anything, but yesterday my friends force me on the Domination ride, it was one of those big roller coasters. I keep on telling them I can’t ride it and I’m really scared, but everybody just ignores me while they dragged by my arms and the other pushes me from behind to get on. Once we got down, they asked how was it and I said it wasn’t as bad as I thought and I actually like it. Then we went…

biggest fear. I hate roller coasters; they go so fast and move side to side and up and down. I remember the first time I got on a roller coaster, it was with my dad. At the moment it seemed really fun and attempting. My dad and I got on and buckled up, it starting going slow and I thought it wasn’t so bad. Until, when started going up and the speed started to increase, the insides of my body were shaking. Then we finally reached the top that’s when I knew it was bad. The roller coaster went down…

Never Feel Scared Of What You Want To Do By: SHreyas Thirumale This was the first time I was in Six Flags and going on the King Cobra Ride. The place looked amazing, but the rides looked extremely huge! We started our way to the King Cobra. We were at the starting of the line and it was really crowded. The line also went really slow. I asked my mom how the ride would feel. She said that it would be exciting. I wasn’t sure about that. This ride was humongous! At last, we were at the stairs. I…

The Never Ending Rollercoaster As my friends and I pass by store to store we had realized that there was a bright red flyers. It had caught our eye, we went and grabbed a flyer and it had said “Ladies and Gentlemen there is going to be a new rollercoaster opening up this Saturday! Come and join the ride!” My friends had said that they wanted to go and check out the rollercoaster. We all had agreed to go this Saturday and ride the rollercoaster. The next day was already Saturday. I of course…

The instability of the roller coaster creates a spring constant. This means that as the car travels through the roller coaster, it loses energy because the track shakes and moves. For example, when viewing the videos it became apparent that when the car entered the loop, the track shook violently making it difficult to determine when the car reached each location. As the car went through the track, going up into the loops it grew in height, decreasing in kinetic energy while increasing in…

Forces are extremely important in a roller coaster, as they create the different sensations throughout the ride, and also help to hold you in your seat for safety. Forces on a roller coaster are measured in g's, which is how to measure gravity on the ride. The change of g's in different situations is what creates the different feelings and thrills you get on the coaster. When our marble is released at the top of the initial hill, energy is transferred from potential energy to kinetic energy.…

with a signup sheet, stating that we could go on the annual AP field trip to Cedar Point. The paper was passed around the room, until it got to me. I stared at the paper for several moments, undecided on whether or not to go. I had never been on a roller coaster before, let alone seen one. On one hand, I was somewhat terrified thinking of the rides. On the other, the thought of skipping school and having the time of my life with my friends also made me excited. Finally, I said, “Screw it,” and…
