We're presenting in a bit, and I think we're doing good so far. In the project, I learned that you need to put your highest potential energy as high (in altitude) as you can, because whatever you do, you cannot get it higher than that, unless you get more power. The thing I like about the project, is that it makes us learn, but it's really fun aswell. The things I would improve in our coaster, is that I would spend less time on decorations and the field, and worked more on the coaster beforehand.

Physics Project Reflection #3
We're close to finishing, and we are doing our best to finish it. Some things that has been going well, is that our turns and loops work now, but the bad things are that the marble loses energy from friction and it cannot go throughout some parts. Inertia is also a big part of our roller coaster, because the marble doesn't want to fall down, it just wants to go the same directions.
Physics Project Reflection #2
The things that are not working for our roller coaster right now is our tape. When the marble gets to it, the frictiont akes energy thay we need desperately. Something that's challenging, is that it's hard to make ideas for new tracks and roads. It's taking us too slow to think and the progress of our roller coaster has been really slow.
