Science: The Bumper Boats

Rainbows End Trip

Senior students visit Rainbows End to study physics applications in a real life context.

Theme parks around the world use physics laws to simulate danger, while the rides themselves are typically very safe. Ride designers must fully understand physics laws to work out how far the envelope can be pushed.

The trip helps to bring physics out of the classroom and into a fun learning atmosphere, with real time examples and applications. The activities are designed to encourage students to interact with each other academically as well as develop their own ideas and opinions using basic physics principles.
