Thames & Kosmos Roller Coaster Engineering
Build and experiment with dozens of roller coaster models to make learning the physics of force, motion, and energy as fun as a day at the amusement park. Conduct an action-packed series of hands-on physics and engineering lessons with an easy, modular building system.
Get to Know:
Experiment by varying the weight of the cars and varying the slope, length, and direction of the track. Get a practical introduction to many physics principles, including gravitation, potential energy, kinetic energy, free fall, projectile motion, friction, centripetal force, velocity, acceleration, and more.
Projects:
Conduct a series of engineering challenges: What is the tallest roller coaster you can build? How about the longest straightaway? Can you build a loop-de-loop? A large, full-color manual guides students through the model assembly and experiments with step-by-step illustrated instructions.
Features:
- Design and build your own working roller coaster models.
- Conduct hands-on physics experiments on force, motion, and energy.
- Try challenges that require building roller coasters of all shapes and sizes.
- This plastic building system is durable, easy to assemble, and reusable.
