we plan to use a pulley, a lever and an inclined plane. The pulley is powered by a fan motor that is turned on by the marble hitting a switch. The lever is activated by the pulley pulling on the side of a tube tilting it, sending the next marble into action down an inclined plane. we have electric energy to Kinetic energy, GPE to KE, KE to Electric. Nick has come in after school, and engineered the pulley and tested and tweaked until everything is perfect. Mark wired the fan and set it up to the Pulley along with the switch. Louie set up some of the ramps and always has good ideas. Richard has also helped with the structure as a whole and Is always providing ideas and staying positive.
