1. Project Ramrod Team RamRod Nick Berens Chris Crowe Tom Dillard Matt King

2. Project Description A Rube Goldberg device that uses a series of tubes to have a marble set off a mouse trap that cuts a string dropping our stamp.

3. Financial Cost Wood Base: $4.16 Hooks: $3.90 PVC Pipe: $1.99 Wood Supports: $1.98 Marbles: $.99 String: $1.29 Stamp: $2.99 Total: $17.30

4. Energy Types  Conservation Of Energy –Potential to Kinetic Ball going down ramps Stamp Dropping  Conservation of Momentum –First ball hitting second ball off ledge  Projectile Motion –Second ball falling off ledge onto mouse trap

5. Conclusion Rube Goldberg devices are complex machines that use many steps to complete the simplest of tasks. This project helps show real world application of many of the ideas that we learned in class this semester.
