A) What changes did you have to do to your original design and why?
-We had to go way off ur original design after the first few steps. It looked good on paper, but once you out wood and metal together and start building, you run into accuracy issues, weight problems, and true functionality problems.
B) What other challenges have you faced up to this point?
- Some challenges we faced was trying to get the marble to hit the mouse trap every single time, and get it accurate enough, another was getting the cork to come out of the glass bottle via the mouse trap.
C) Outside of simple machines and energy transfers, discuss two other physics concepts in detail that are demostrated in your project.
-One is circuits; we dealt some time with putting together a fan that gets turned on by a switch that gets flipped via a "zip line."
Another is force with collisions when the zip line attached to a duct tape ball hits the golf ball, there is an inelastic collisions because the ball moves with the golf ball for a split second to give it that push.
