Welcome to the world of mechanical engineering!
Roller coasters are machines that move people very fast in surprising directions. It’s all about the thrill of speed, turns, climbs, and drops. Some people love to ride on them and others do not, but we can all agree that building one will be fun! To build a great roller coaster, you need to understand motion, speed, and how to think like an engineer.
