Answer 1

Kingda Ka is a steel roller coaster at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey, USA. It is currently the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world, claiming the title from Top Thrill Dragster in Cedar Point. :( It opened on May 20, 2005 as part of a new area of the theme park called the Golden Kingdom.it goes from 0 to 128 miles an hour in 3 sec.456 feet tall.418 decent.


malfunctions:a bolt failure caused the liner inside the trough that the launch cable travels through to come loose and create friction against the cable. The friction caused the train to not accelerate to the correct speed. The rubbing of the cable against the inside of the metal trough caused sparks and shards of metal to fly out from the bottom of the train. The engine, as it is designed, attempted to compensate by applying more force to the cable to attain the 128 mph launch speed.The brake fins that rise up into the braking position go up on a timing pattern, independent of the launching mechanism. The fins are mounted in steel supports that are connected to actuators that raise and lower the fins into the desired position. There are four braking zones, and each zone has about 24 individual brake fins. The fins actually caught up to the launching train as the timing pattern of the rising fins was faster than the accelerating train. The magnetic brakes began to slow the train in the launch area, and the engine tried to compensate even more, and dragged the train through the brake zones. The catch car released, but the train was still in the brake zone and came to a complete stop at the bottom of the hill.

This malfunction occurred when no passengers were aboard during a routine morning test run. 5 injuries and no deaths occurred. Damage occurred to the launch cable (frayed and needed to be replaced), engine (minor routine damage to seals), and brake fins (many needed to be replaced). The brake fins in the launch section are mounted in such a way to keep fast moving trains from moving backwards into the station, but a fast moving train being pulled forwards caused an unexpected stress on a number of fins that bent them forward. Not all of the fins need to be replaced, but there were more damaged fins than Six Flags had replacements, and had to be specially ordered from Intamin. In addition, Kingda Ka had to be re-inspected. Kingda Ka started testing on July 21, 2005. It reopened on August 4, 2005, with the line modified so that it no longer ran under the launch track. [2] The dark blue train was being launched when the malfunction occurred. It was used for the rest of the season, but major problems requiring replacement parts were discovered when the train was inspected during the off-season. Consequently, this train remained disassembled throughout the 2006 season.hit me on the arm

Answer 3

the tallest and fastest roller coaster is the Kingda Ka at the Six Flags amusement park in Jackson, New Jersey. It is 456 feet tall and goes at 128 mph. Roller coaster accidents are fairly rare. But I couldn't tell you of any record of it.
