Ever wonder how a zip line works? Wonder no more! In our first STEMonstration, we'll investigate gravity, friction, and the physics behind launched objects. Using simple materials, GPB educators will build and test a way to move a small ball down a zip-line string in less than four seconds. Plus, you might even find a job you like in the mountains of north Georgia!
