Roller Coaster fun while learning the physics behind it!

Ever considered learning about science through having fun on roller coasters?


I am looking into organizing a day of fun at Santa Clarita's Magic Mountain and they have height requirements for some of the rides.

But there is a small roller coaster ride at Santa Monica's Pacific Park at the pier.  In my mailbox today is a $10 deal for Santa Monica's Pacific Park.  So, I bought a couple for my children.

If you would like to an all day $10 ticket (about half-price) for Pacific Park, this link is good only for today before midnight.



Check out this link for some science fun and here's the photo of an awesome ride from this link!

Enjoy,
GCB

Roller Coaster

Roller Coaster Roller Coaster
Faster than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. It’s a … roller coaster? Well, they may not be quite as fast as a speeding bullet, but unlike Super Man, roller coasters don’t need any super powers in order to fly, spin, and race through the air at top speeds. What do they need? Physics.
