Roller Coaster Challenge
Teams are tasked with designing and constructing a roller coaster track using only the provided materials. The structure must be able to transport a ball from point A to point B using only gravitational force. Each team is responsible for building a section of the track, which will then be connected to form a complete circuit.
This activity requires creativity, planning, and strong teamwork, as teams must collaborate to ensure their section seamlessly integrates with others. The challenge also includes elements of engineering and physics, making it an excellent opportunity for participants to apply problem-solving skills in a real-world scenario.
One of the most exciting aspects of this challenge is the final testing phase, where all sections are put together to create one large roller coaster track. Teams must refine and adjust their designs in real-time to ensure the ball moves smoothly through the entire course, incorporating loops, drops, and spirals for added excitement.
