SEVEN Blog 3

A.) The changes that we had to do to our original design are we had to construct a screw at the top of our project to fit the time requirement. We added a tube at the beginning to add time to the project. Lastly we added a mouse trap to help secure our bucket with our pellets.
B.) The challenges we have faced are securing the pellets in the bucket, so the bucket falls and releases the pellets on impact. Also, we needed the pulley to drop from a higher height, so when it hits the tambourine it hits the appropriate height,.
C.) We had to deal with both static and kinetic friction when the marble goes down the inclined plane. We had to control it do the marble stopped and went down the rest of the track. Also, Gravitational potential energy when the golf ball falls and hits the trambourine. We had to increase the height so that the ball went farther.
