Every day individuals encounter life experiences not realizing the scientific nature of physics being involved. Physics exists all around weather one is cognizant or not. For example, roller coasters have become quite the attraction at major theme parks all across the globe and operate due to physics. Many men, women, boys and girls want to experience the thrill of zero gravity, upside down loops, twists and curls at extremely fast speeds. However, there is another portion of the population who does not want to go anywhere and would rather speculate from the ground. In either instance, the detailed study of physical science makes it all possible. Even though the physics of a roller coaster are intricate due to the composition of various forms of energy, accelerometers and gravitational forces; their makeup can be quite intriguing. The study of physics dates back several years and can be attributed to different individuals. Knowing the history of physics will help understand general concepts and how they can be applied to creating objects such as the roller coaster. The lessons initiated from the historical founders of physics are vitally important to apprehend the ideas of today and more importantly the direction for how they will shape tomorrow (Garcia et al., 2010). Copernicus, a prominent attributer, initially suggested that the planets revolve around the sun and the Earth rotates on an axis (Britannica Biographies, 2011). The idea will later assist Galileo, another prominent Physics historian, with theories such as free fall and experimentation with pendulums. Newton followed and was able to elaborate on the idea and further explain gravity and the concept of inertia. Einstein collaborated the theory of relativity which expounded on Newton’s ideas (Dellian, 2003). The above theories are all involved in the construction and operation of roller
