Here's the Challenge:
Apply knowledge of Newton's law of motion, momentum, and energy to design and construct a vehicle that will go as far as possible using an unbalanced force to create motion
Rules:
- Construct a vehicle that can travel at least 3 tiles (each tile is 60 cm). Vehicle must stay within a 2-tile wide path
- No forward force may be applied to vehicle by the student (me)
- Vehicle must be made of recycled/reused products. No pre-made vehicle parts
- Vehicle must travel using an unbalanced force to create motion
- Students are not allowed to help vehicle along the path
- Students may not use electricity/ fuel cells or manufactured containers of pressurized gas. This is a land vehicle. All vehicles start from a level surface ( no ramps or strings). All parts of vehicle must remain on vehicle, except fuel
*Extra Credit- Vehicle travels 5 tiles
