Groups 37 Day 2

Done by Shawn Regan

A) Which simple machines do you plan to incorporate and how do you plan to use them?
1. Pulley- we will use it to start a new ball falling from the top.
2. Inclined plane- to transfer the ball to waste time and achieve the one minute goal.
3. Lever- we will use a seesaw lever which is impacted by the mass of a marble

 B) What energy transfers do you plan to incorporate and how will they be demostrated in your project?
1. When the ball is dropped it is PEg to KE
2. When the ball is moving and is stopped it is KE to PEg

C) Finally, how has each group member specifically contributed to the project since the start?
Shawn is drilling and placing objects onto the boards and perfecting the overall course. Ben is strapping down and duck tapping tracks while coming up with new designs and perfecting the overall course. Chris is strapping down tracks, fixing problems on the course, and helping in making the incline planes.
