    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.
