Description - The Science of Amusement Parks by Douglas Hustad
From riding a roller coaster to riding a wave, there are many ways to have fun. Some people enjoy playing catch with friends. Others prefer zipping down a waterslide. The Science of Fun examines the science behind all your favourite activities. Whether it's swinging at a playground or having a snowball fight during the winter, understanding the science of each activity can make both science and the activity more interesting and fun! Riders plummet toward the ground on drop towers. Motion simulators trick the brain into thinking the body is on a thrilling ride. From pendulum rides to roller coasters, science explains how it all works. The Science of Amusement Parks reveals the fascinating ways that science is at work in popular amusement park rides. Easy-to-read text, vivid images, and helpful back matter give readers a clear look at this subject. Features include a table of contents, infographics, a glossary, additional resources, and an index.
