Description
Free Fall Ride Model is an easy to use simulation that allows a user to design a ride by adjusting the height versus time graph.
The apparant weight of the rider arises from the ever present acceleration of gravity in combination with the acceleration of the elevator.
If the elevator is stationary or moving with consant speed (i.e. not accelerating), the rider feels their normal weight. If the elevator accelerates upwards, the rider feels heavier and if the elevator accelerates downward the rider feels lighter.
With a strong enough downward acceleration, the rider can experience effective weightlessness or even negative g forces (requiring seat belts or restraints to avoid head trauma!).
