  • ACE's Scandinavian Sojourn
    ACE’s Scandinavian Sojourn : A Southerner’s Perspective Story by: Richard Bostic, assisted by Ronny Cook When I went on the ACEspana trip back in 2009, it was by far one of the most amazing vacations I have ever experienced. In addition to getting to visit parks in a different culture than we see here, it is also a great opportunity to spend time with fellow enthusiasts and grow friendships while enjoying our common interests. When Scandinavia Sojourn was announced for the summer of 2011, I knew it was a trip I could not miss. Since the 2009 trip was my first trip to Europe I thought that there was no way the over- all experience could be better in Scandinavia. I was wrong. We landed in Helsinki, Finland around 1300 the day before we were required to be at the hotel to meet with the group. Helsinki is an interesting city and fairly new compared to many cities in Europe. Walking around the city you can see the Russian influence in the city’s architecture. In fact, many movies during the cold war would use Helsinki to shoot scenes that are supposed to be set in the Soviet Union. After making our way to the Crowne Plaza Hotel and getting a quick lunch at the hotel restaurant we decided to spend the remaining time that afternoon checking out some of the sites around our hotel. Some of these sites included the Temppeliaukio Church inside of a rock formation, the train station, Routatientori Square and National Theater, and a couple of the city’s art museums.

  • SFGAM Physics Day Teacher Manual.Pdf
    E = mc² TEACHER MANUAL ©2014 Six Flags Theme Parks authorizes individual teachers who use this book permission to make enough copies of material in it to satisfy the needs of their own students and classes. Copying of this book or parts for resale is expressly prohibited. We would appreciate being noted as the source, “Six Flags Great America, Chicago” in all materials used based on this publication. Six Flags Great America 542 North Route 21 Gurnee, Illinois 60031 (847)249-1952 sixflags.com Why Take a Field Trip to an Amusement Park? If physics teachers could design the ultimate teaching laboratory, what would it be like? The laboratory would certainly contain devices for illustrating Newton's laws of motion, energy transformations, momentum conservation, and the dynamics of rotation. It would consist of large-scale apparatus so the phenomena could be easily observed and analyzed. Oh, and of course, the dream laboratory would allow the students an opportunity to not only witness the laws of physics in operation, but also feel them! Well, this dream laboratory does exist and is as close as Six Flags Great America! At Six Flags Great America, virtually all the topics included in the study of mechanics can be observed operating on a grand scale. Furthermore, phenomena, such as weightlessness, which can only be talked about in the classroom, may be experienced by anyone with sufficient courage. Students must quantify what they see and feel when doing amusement park physics. Unlike textbook problems, no data is given. Therefore, students must start from scratch. Heights of rides, periods of rotation, and lengths of roller coaster trains must be obtained before plugging data into equations learned in the classroom.
