Physics Project Reflection 1 - Debra

Recently, we have started our rollercoaster project. As a group, we decided to do a combination of a Rube Goldberg project and a rollercoaster project. We hope that our project will consist of many events, and will work. So far we thought about how we wanted our Rube Rollercoaster to look like and we decided instead of making one roller coaster we will make two that connect, so that we can have more events. We will have dominoes being knocked down and cups being dropped. So far we have only built the beginnig of the two coasters.

The beginning of our project




One frustration we had was after building our first rollercoaster on the first day, right when class
ended, the rollercoaster fell apart. Even though it fell apart, we figured out a better way for it to stay up. Next class we are hoping to get a better structure four our coaster, get some boxes, and get more equipment.
