Scientific Smmer


1.This summer I did a lot of fun and interesting things,some were scientific and some were not. I have a task now to choose one scientific thing I did and describe what is so scientific about it.

Singapore, Universal Studios (wonderful place) I get ready to get into the straps of the roller coaster.

First I feel the gravity pulling me into the chair when we are climbing up,

Second, my body starts the adrenaline and my pulse starts to rise, third(the fun bit), I feel a sudden acceleration when going down hill as well I feel the negative G's (the gut feeling when going down or the absence of gravity pulling you down so you feel weight less),

then the roller coaster pulls up and G's make me feel heavier(1 G is the gravity per unit on earth, anything above is feeling heavier),

then the ride takes a sharp turn, this involves Inertia, inertia is when you want to keep going with your momentum instead of going with the coaster.

At the end of it all you decelerate and you want to blow chunks.
