A roller coaster is an amusement park ride for thrill-seekers. All roller coasters follow the law of conservation of energy, which is : energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be transformed into another form. The two most important forms of energy in roller coasters are kinetic and potential energy. Potential energy is energy that an object has because of its height. It is equal to the object's mass x the object’s height x the gravitational constant (PE = mgh; x = multiplication). The

Dead bodies, still as plastic dolls, frozen in the ocean. This was the dreadful sight that rescuers were likely to of born witness to, after the Titanic had sunk.
