Week 2

Through week two, we are finalizing our top three decisions for the eventual experiment we will conduct. We have began coming up with a decision matrix to assist us in deciding. Our choices have come down to a gear ratio, a center of mass, and a pneumatics lab. We are also working on a gantt chart to get an idea of the timeline for finishing this experiment. We plan on completing a few tasks one week at a time.

Original Ideas

Image
Possible Experiment Ideas: -        Center of mass: Build a structure with multiple tiers. Put different weight throughout the structure and figure out where they balance.  The main goal is to find where the center of mass is. -        Gear ratio K’NEX spring vehicle. Possibly turn this into a competition which will lead to engagement. -        Water and sound lab. This can be another engaging experiment and  -     Power a light bulb with gear ratios and a        falling weight Things to consider for the experiment: -        Cheap -        Safe -        Educational -        Durable -        Engaging / fun -        Easy to assembl...
