Physics
Glossary For many people, there is only one reason to go to an amusement park: the roller coaster. Some people call it the "scream machine," with good reason. The history of this ride reflects a constant search for greater and more death-defying thrills. What you may not realize as you're cruising down the track at 60 miles an hour is that the coaster has no engine. The car is pulled to the top of the first hill at the beginning of the ride, but after that the coaster must complete the ride on its own. You aren't being propelled around the track by a motor or pulled by a hitch. The conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy is what drives the roller coaster, and all of the kinetic energy you need for the ride is present once the coaster descends the first hill..
Once you're underway, different types of wheels help keep the ride smooth. Running wheels guide the coaster on the track. Friction wheels control lateral motion (movement to either side of the track). A final set of wheels keeps the coaster on the track even if it's inverted. Compressed air brakes stop the car as the ride ends.

zimovet [89]
It's not illegal, but never have them on while driving unless you need to warn drivers behind you of a hazard or you're carrying something like for example: On freeways there are some semis and regular trucks who are hauling something/s and need to warn people that it's hazardous or to be careful when passing

How do institutions like religion and politics play a role in creating or maintaining beliefs and preconceived notions?
Feliz [49]
Religion and politics play an important role in the society. Institutions like religion and politics can either damage or improve the mindset and the way of living of an individual. They also create a huge influence on how people behave, live, and survive. 
For instance, religion focuses with particularly in the system of faith and its practices. Their teachings can affect an individual as it helps them realize where they stand in life.
On the other hand, politics affects us individually because it has something to do with how an individual survive on his daily living. Politics cover our rights as a human and how we will interact with the environment.
We can conclude that our actions, beliefs, and thoughts are just an outcome of how we accepted them.
