3. Introduction
Our purpose was to design a roller that could transport an object from start to finish in fifteen seconds.
We also used the lessons and laws of physics to design and execute our roller coaster.

4. Overview
The design includes an zigzag ramp that travels to a drop the object.
After the drop the coaster involves a fairly large loop and a spiral.
Lessons and laws included are those of Constant Acceleration and Conservation of Energy.

6. Lessons and Laws Conservation of Energy:
It has potential energy at the top because of gravity.
The potential energy of the object is converted to kinetic energy during the climb down of the zigzag and drop.
Circular Motion is involved in the loop and the spiral.

7. Conclusion
The total construction of the roller coaster came about through several meetings by the team members.
The presentation and report were also developed during these team meetings.
Most problems were encountered in constructing the roller coaster to match the calculations and drawings we developed.

8. The End!
