  • Loop the Loop: Physics of Vertical Loop Roller Coasters
    CALIFORNIA STATE SCIENCE FAIR 2010 PROJECT SUMMARY Name(s) Project Number Michael A. Swerdlow J0224 Project Title Loop the Loop: Physics of Vertical Loop Roller Coasters Abstract Objectives/Goals My general objective was to investigate how the shape of a roller coaster's vertical loop affects the ability of the roller-coaster car to complete the loop. At the top of the loop, the car's velocity must exceed a critical value at which centripetal force balances the force of gravity. Based on this, my project tested the hypothesis that the minimum velocity to complete vertical loops with equal height varies directly with the radius of curvature (R) at the top of the loop. Methods/Materials I modeled the roller coaster using clear plastic aquarium tubing as tracks and ball bearings as cars. Tubing was bent into 1 of 3 vertical-loop shapes with equal height: Tear Drop (R = 6.1 cm), Circle (R = 13.1 cm), and Watermelon (R = 16.5 cm). Ball bearings were released from 3 different heights, 5 times for each loop shape (total 45 trials). Results were classified as (1) incomplete loop, does not reach top; (2) incomplete loop, reaches top but falls off outer rim; or (3) complete loop. Each trial was recorded on high-speed, digital video at 210 frames per second (fps), imported into Logger Pro software, and digitized to measure the position of the ball bearing in each video frame using the time-motion analysis module. From this, I determined the velocity at the bottom and top of the loop. Results For the Tear Drop, Circle, and Watermelon, ball bearings reached the top on 13, 8, and 5 trials, respectively.

We sit at the sweet spot of broad trends driving the “experience” and “membership” economies, while being insulated from the online threats impacting so many companies. I am very proud of our outstanding team members who overcame unprecedented natural events to deliver our eighth consecutive year of record financial performance in 2017. I am even more excited about our future as we continue to build our lucrative, recurring revenue base. In 2017, Adjusted EBITDA (1) grew two percent, and our Modified EBITDA (1) margin remained the industry high. We returned $727 million to shareholders in the form of stock repurchases and dividends and delivered a 16 percent total return. In addition, we increased our dividend twice since the third quarter 2017 to an annual run-rate of $3.12 per share. This marks our ninth consecutive year of dividend increases and provides a yield more than double the S&P 500, making us the ultimate growth and yield stock. Over the course of 2017, we made notable progress to advance all our five major growth areas: 1) Took pricing up 3-5 percent on all our tickets, while reaching new highs in our value-for-the- money-ratings and achieving the most successful pre-sale

    August 2012 Newsletter ------------------------------------ Yesterday & Today Records P.O.Box 54 Miranda NSW 2228 Phone: (02) 95311710 Email:[email protected] www.yesterdayandtoday.com.au ------------------------------------------------ Postage Australia post is essentially the world’s most expensive service. We aim to break even on postage and will use the best method to minimise costs. One good innovation is the introduction of the “POST PLUS” satchels, which replace the old red satchels and include a tracking number. Available in 3 sizes they are 500 grams ($7.50) 3kgs ($11.50) 5kgs ($14.50) P & P. The latter 2 are perfect for larger interstate packages as anything over 500 grams even is going to cost more than $11.50. We can take a cd out of a case to reduce costs. Basically 1 cd still $2. 2cds $3 and rest as they will fit. Again Australia Post have this ludicrous notion that if a package can fit through a certain slot on a card it goes as a letter whereas if it doesn’t it is classified as a “parcel” and can cost up to 5 times as much. One day I will send a letter to the Minister for Trade as their policies are distinctly prejudicial to commerce. Out here they make massive profits but offer a very poor number of services and charge top dollar for what they do provide. Still, the mail mostly always gets there. But until ssuch times as their local monopoly remains, things won’t be much different. ----------------------------------------------- For those long term customers and anyone receiving these newsletters for the first time we have several walk in sales per year, with the next being Saturday August 25th.
