Name: Emilie Date:10.21.2012Sources:http://www.travelchannel.com/video/six-flags-kingda-kahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingda_Ka#Records_Description:(Summary, Video, Article, Novel, etc.)The video is about the rollercoaster Kingda Ka which is the fastest and tallest roller coaster inthe world. In the video, you experience the same view that a front seat rider of Kinga Ka would.You can tell that one is going really fast, and that the rollercoaster is really high, but would youguess that this rollercoaster is going 128 mph and it’s going up a 456 foot steel mountain?Describe the most exciting idea:I think the most exicting think about Kingda Ka is that when it comes out of the starter its goingso fast that it doesn’t even need chains to pull it up. Connection to Physical Science:(Principles, relationships, theories, etc.)This rollercoaster has an instantaneous speed of 128 mph. The distance the rollercoaster goesis 3,118 feet and the displacement is zero.To whom would you recommend?I would recommend Kingda Ka to anyone who enjoys thrill rushes.Student Score 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10M.r Ewen’s Comments
