The Gravity of the Situation
And we're off! Inspired by our unit on force and motion, we are beginning to construct our Gravity Racers! These cars will be sent down a ramp, powered only by the force of gravity. Our racers have one goal in mind...make it at least 100 cm beyond the end of the ramp! Can they do it?!? We are already encountering problems and making adjustments. Is a cardboard milk carton the best body for our cars? Is bigger better? Which wheels are the best? So many questions, so little time! If you have concerns about your car, leave a question as a comment and your classmates and I can respond with advice!
