Energy And Waves | Individual Enrollment
This physics lesson explores the use of sound and light as well as discovers how magnetism is used on a truly Screamin' rollercoaster. Students see how energy of light and sound come together to create amazing Disney magic.
This is an eye-opener! Led through Disney California Adventure® Park students get an up-close look into how the energy of light and sound come together through the It's Tough to Be a Bug 3D and The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™ attractions. And that's not even the best part. Students also get to learn about and experience electromagnetism by exploring the high-speed, thrilling roller coaster California Screamin'.
It's Tough to Be a Bug is inspired by Disney-Pixar's "a bug's life."The Twilight Zone® is a registered trademark of CBS, Inc. and is used with permission pursuant to a license from CBS, Inc.
