What Goes Up Must Come DownRoller Coaster Physics Sit back and relax for the ride of your life. You will be traveling forwards and backwards-Through a disorientating trip of cork screw turns and upside-down loops! Don’t hold your breath to long or scream to loud because roller coaster physics will be a thrill!!!! Task Your task is to research the history and design of roller coasters with the use of terms relating to Newton’s Laws of motion and force. Once you feel confident in your research your team is responsible for naming and designing the world’s fastest and most exciting roller coaster. Process This web-quest should be completed in groups of 3-5 people and will be completed in 8 days. The first 3 days of class will be spent in the computer lab finding your research. This research will be compiled into a group PowerPoint presentation. Day 4 will be used completing an interactive roller coaster lab. The next 3 days you will be building your roller coaster either on the computer or a scale model with your own materials. On the final day, your group will be presenting your PowerPoint presentation and roller coaster to class. Each person in your group will be given a task to choose from: 1) Newtonian Physicist 2) Roller Coaster Enthusiast/Historian 3) Roller Coaster Designer/Architect 4) Engineer/Safety Coordinator Newtonian Physicist This person will be researching Sir Issac Newton, Newton’s Three Laws of Motion, and vocabulary that relates to the three laws. Some key terms are listed below: *Newton’s 1st Law of Motion *Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion *Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion *centrifugal force *Biography of Sir Issac Newton *Acceleration *Inertia *Force *Friction *Centripetal Force *Velocity *Kinetic Energy *Gravity *Potential Energy *centripetal force *Speed *G Force Roller Coaster Enthusiast/Historian This person will research the history of roller coasters. When and where were the first roller coasters first created? When and where
