Acceleration and gravity are really useful in nature and in technology. Ever feel your legs wobble when an elevator starts to go up? That's gravity; we call this "G-force". This lesson will help you understand the uses of acceleration and gravity as you design (and later learn about) one of the favorite rides out there... Roller Coasters!
