Overview • Team 2 tilts a cup, and a sinker rolls out and sets off a mouse trap. • The mouse trap throws a sack and the sack hits a vertical board. • The board is on a hinge so it falls and strikes a wheel. • The wheel spins with enough torque to set off another mouse trap. • The second mouse trap breaks a tooth pick, which lets free a string. • The string holds a cup which drops and closes scissors and turns on a light at the same time.
Conservation of Energy Projectile Motion
Conservation of Angular Momentum Torque:
Problems • Problems with sinker dropping • Problems with mousetrap • Weight of wood on swivel • Pulley system
Conclusion • Team Work • Reliable team members • Good design before starting (brainstorming) • Trail and error
