Scrap-Project• Adam Holbrook• Brent Davis• Dan Moser• Tyler Rutherford

Overview of Structure• Wood outer structure• Car shooter• Pulley system• Car track• Kinex pegs and trigger• Wooden pendulum• Car hammer• Rotational motion wheel

Energy Transfer• Elastic-shooter• Kinetic-shot/projectile

motion• Kinetic/potential-pulley• Gravitational potential-

track

Energy Transfer• Kinetic-car collides with

wooden pendulum• Rotational-wooden

pendulum collides with trigger

• Torque-kinex trigger pulls pin out of car hammer

• Rotational-car hammer collides with wheel

• Rotational-wheel spins and panel collides with next project

Issues

• Consistency with shooter/pulley/everything

• Scraped a lot of ideas• Difficulties with pulley

system with friction• Catcher size

Conclusions• Ended up changing a lot

of the original design to a more simpler, realistic design due to lack of time and consistency

• Took roughly twelve hours to complete

• Learned how to apply our physics knowledge to real world situations
