Can you design a rollercoaster that is safe and exciting?
The owners of PlayLand are seeking proposals for a new wooden roller coaster ride. This coaster must thrill riders young and old with unique design features that incorporate the best in safety and engineering while providing an unforgettable experience. Using preliminary physics concepts that are used to design real coasters, you must justify the design of your coaster using mathematics and research to a final deciding committee.
We will accept proposals in five weeks. Complete proposal criteria available upon request — serious inquiries only. The future of our local theme park rides on your ingenuity.
