Details
Make learning the physics of energy, motion and force as fun as a day at the amusement park! Assemble and experiment with dozens of roller coaster models with these easy, modular building systems. Engage in an action-packed series of hands-on physics and engineering lessons by erecting a durable frame structures, attaching the flexible track and testing endless roller coaster designs.
Conduct different experiments by altering the weight of the cars and adjusting the length, slope and direction of the track. This kit gives you a practical introduction into the many principles of physics including acceleration, centripetal force, free fall, friction, gravitation, kinetic energy, potential energy, projectile motion, velocity and more!
Perform a series of engineering challenges: Can you build a loop-de-loop? How about the longest straightaway? What is the tallest roller coaster you can build? the large, full-color, step-by-step, illustrated instruction manual will guide you through the model assembly and experiments.
