Presentation Transcript

  1. Application of EDP and Laws of motion to a self-propelled car

  2. Background information: what students needed to know • How to calculate velocity • Newton’s 3 Laws of Motion • Kinetic and static friction • Momentum • Making sketches • EDP steps

  3. As engineers for a toy manufacturing company, students were expected to: 1. Work as a team 2. Commit a design to paper (most challenging for some students) 3. Meet a deadline 4. Test their car for speed 5. Problem solve and redesign after initial test

  4. Part 2: Crash test • Testing momentum and Newton’s Third Law Students secure an egg in the car and crash it into a wall.

  5. Calculations • Velocity • With and without the egg • Momentum

  6. Final Product • Create an instructional manual explaining • how to build a self-propelled car • how the car involves of physics • How to use the EDP

  7. Rocket launcher
