From here the best design (it may be yours) will be chosen to be built in the actual prac: lizellexs https://padlet.com/lizellexs/ya2yhvuav8snsc3x/wish/2362870728
  • CHOOSE A THEME for your roller coaster and design it. 
  • Show height dimensions on your sketch.
  • Your marble (used as coaster on your track) has a mass of 6,5 g.
  • Calculate potential energies and kinetic energies at the following points:
    • At the start (this initial release point may not exceed 2 meters high)
    • On the hills (not the start)
    • At the highest ánd lowest point of your “loop the loop”. 

      Then:
    1. Calculate the final velocity of your marble at the end of the ride. 
    2. Do research and answer:
      • When and where was the first roller coaster ever built? 
      • What is the world’s highest roller coaster?
    3. Hand in the hard copy of your design and calculations to your teacher at the start of your prac tomorrow.
