Year 13 Physics Trip

While experiencing the thrill, screams and fun on rides, exploring physics principles could not get any better than taking a trip down to Rainbows End. The Year 13 Physics students were lucky enough to apply physics concepts that they have learnt in class into action while observing various rides in a theme park. While using concepts such as centre of mass, momentum, rotational motion and simple harmonic motion, the physics students were able to investigate why certain parts of the rides go faster and more! Students could say that their experience with learning physics has never been better than this excursion to the theme park which gave them the opportunity to apply their knowledge to real life situations.
