1 Roller Coasters

2 Vocabulary *Add this to your vocabulary sheet centrifugal force Motion energy that pushes an object outward from the center Example: riders are pushed outward from the center of the loop

3 Design me a Roller Coaster Work with your group to design a marble coaster using worksheet directions. You will be using 3 foam “tubes” for your coaster. (See the one on the demo table to know what they look like.) Draw your roller coaster design on the back of the worksheet *See next slides for some pictures of coasters made my students in past years.
