Roller Coaster Lab 1) Make a WORKING Roller Coaster out of the materials below. They key is that the marble stays in the track (tubing). You will also try to catch the marble at the end of the track. 2) Determine the speed, acceleration and momentum of the marble at various points along the track 3) Type up and answer the questions/procedure as stated in the rubric 4) Create graphs of your data as stated in the rubric. · 2 six foot sections of ¾ inch inner diameter, thin wall, pipe insulation track · 1 marble · cup (to catch marble at end of track) · ~ 8 twenty cm sections of masking tape · Timer (preferably a stopwatch)
 * Objective: **
 * Materials ** (**per group**)…you will get your material after providing a good design.

PRE-LAB PREP: Know these equations: Force=Mass*Acceleration and Speed= Distance / Time Know these terms: Potential energy and kinetic energy
