Slides

Dear Physics Journal,

I live across the street from Wailupe Elementary School. And on campus, they have a jungle gym. My friend, Lia, and I thought it would be fun to ride slides again and play with the tic-tac-toe feature just to rekindle our childhood memories. As we began to ride down the slides, I realized that it has everything to do with physics! As I climbed up the stairs I increased my potential energy while my kinetic energy lessened. As we rode down the slide, our potential energy became less, and our kinetic energy increased! Without this, slides would not be fun...at all! How thankful I am for physics!
