  2. The Team

  3. Introduction • Goal: Lift a one kilogram weight to height of one meter in ten seconds. • The device materials must cost under $20. • The materials used were basic.

  4. BEWM

  5. Overview • The initial step: release of mouse traps. • Water released to operate water wheel. • Wheel releases rocks (counter-weight). • Counter-weight lifts one kg. weight.

  6. Energy Conversions • Mouse Trap • Spring Potential Energy to Rotational Kinetic Energy • Water in bottle • Gravitational Potential Energy to Kinetic Energy • Water wheel • Kinetic Energy • Rocks • Gravitational Potential Energy

  7. Conclusions • The device took many hours of planning, building, and testing. • Some problems encountered were: • How to get the water wheel to turn • How we were going to keep our device balanced
