Zombies are only in horror movies, but students predicted that zombies could kill us in 100 days. Students wrote an article. It said there would only be 273 survivors of a zombie attack. The zombies were really a deadly virus. Someone got the virus. That person gave the virus to other people. It quickly spread around the world.

Students wrote about zombies so they could be creative. They could show people how much physics they knew. It also gave the students writing practice. A professor said it tested how students could use physics in imaginary situations. This could help us in the future with real disasters.
