First Post to Roller Coaster

We have decided to build a roller coaster for our physics experiment.
The materials we have used so far are construction paper and tape.
1st step is to cut the construction paper into strips and to tape them together.
We will continue this process until there is enough room to build a loop to make our first observation.
At this point we are not planning on needing any more materials to build the roller coaster.

  1. What are you going to use for the roller coaster cart? Are you going to use different size materials? Why did you choose that specific slant? Was it because that was the height of the shelf or a specific incline you were curious about?
    I really like the set up you guys have. I'm curious to see how fast the "cart" is going when it hits the end of the ramp. Keep us posted! :-)
