Class Response- Roller Coaster.

For this project, I chose the roller coaster over the skate park. This was an amazing experience because I had never really gotton to create something out of junk in my life, and there I was, making a miniature roller coaster out of paper towel rolls, cardboard boxes, and a LOT of tape. It wasn't just me, though. There were 5 other people in my group also. With all of us working together, the end result turned out spectacular. I learned a great deal about Newton's Laws, speed, velocity, and much more. Newton's First Law of Motion states that an object will remain at rest until an unbalanced force is applied to it. This is an example of the marble riding the roller coaster. Someone had to apply force for it to roll down.
