Funderstanding Roller Coaster
Grades
6 to 12In the Classroom
In a computer lab, have students create their own roller coasters at the end of a physics term. The site requires knowledge of acceleration, motion, and the laws of physics and is an excellent way for students to put their new found knowledge to use. For a twist, have students compete in teams to see who can build the scariest, highest, craziest or most creative roller coaster. Or use this site to spur a class discussion as to how physics is used in the real world!Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
