Creating an Online Roller Coaster





 Today Amy was talking to my immersion group about kinetic and potential energy.  We had to create our own Roller Coaster online. We had to pick how we want to create it like the height of the first hill, the loop and the shape. At the end it shows us how we did by saying how safe it is and how fun it is which I got both THUMBS DOWN! every time I tried. I learned facts about wooden and steel, and how it  can be looping or nonlooping. There is a big difference in the ride depending on the type of material used. In general, wooden coasters are nonlooping. They're also not as tall and not as fast, and they don't feature very steep hills or as long  tracks as steel ones do. Wooden coasters do offer one advantage over steel coasters, assuming you're looking for palm-sweating thrills: they sway a lot more. Tubular steel coasters allow more looping, higher and steeper hills, greater drops and rolls, and faster speeds.
