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 an amusement park. Conduct an action-packed series of hands-on physics and engineering lessons with this modular building system.
Get to Know:
Experiment by varying the weight of the cars and varying the slope, lengths, and directions of the track. Get a practical introduction to the many physics principles, including gravitation, potential energy, kinetic energy, centripetal force, projectile motion, friction, free fall, velocity, acceleration, and more.
Projects:
Conduct a series of engineering challenges: what is the tallest roller coaster kids can build? How about the longest straightaway? Can they build a loop-de-loop? A large full-color manual guides children all throughout the model assembly and experiments with step-by-step illustrated instructions.
Features:
- Conduct hands-on physics experiments on force, motion, and energy.
- Try challenges that require building coasters of all shapes and sizes.
- This building system is durable, easy to assemble, and reusable.
- Design and build your own working roller coaster models.
