Roller Coaster of Doom!

Well done to all the physics 12 students. Each group had a working roller coaster and the following points earned are as followed.

Devon, Jared, Patrick and Jeremy B. earned a whopping 154 points with their two path roller coaster (81 point path and 73 point path)

Becky, Megan, Alana, Jeremy W. and Michael K. earned 96 points for their blue monstrosity. The only one with a working elevator to ensure continual motion. Well done!

Christian, Steven, Hendrik and Frank earned 50 points for their simple, no frills ride. Good job!

And finally, David, Michael M., Robert, Trask and Jonathan earned 43 points for their beautiful wooden frame coaster (though they probably could have earned more if they spent more time on the coaster than the frame :P)

I was going to award the group with the highest point coaster another point for their side in the Arocena Cup race, but the top two groups are mixed with members from Team O and Team E. So congrats to Team E as Frank, Christian, Steven and Hendrik earn you guys another point to lead Team O 3 points to 1.

Pictures of the Roller Coasters can be found here
