Roller coaster
Definition of Roller coaster
1.
An
amusement
railroad
of
varying
design
in
which
open
cars
coast
by
gravity
over
a
long
winding
track
in
a
closed
circuit
,
with
steep
pitches
and
ascents
,
and
in
some
cases
loops
in
which
the
cars
are
briefly
upside-down
;
typically
,
the
cars
are
pulled
by
a
chain
device
to
the
top
of
the
first
peak
,
after
which
gravity
and
momentum
provide
the
only
propulsive
forces
.
In
some
cases
,
the
cars
are
suspended
from
a
monorail
rather
than
resting
on
a
track
,
and
such
cars
may
be
made
to
swing
outward
at
an
angle
near
to
the
horizontal
.
It
is
a
popular
amusement
at
many
amusement
parks
,
but
is
sufficiently
frightening
to
some
people
that
they
refuse
to
ride
in
one
.
