2. Overview A weight is released and pulls down the lever of toaster
Weight hits the lever which in turn triggers a mousetrap
Mousetrap launches a ball at a plank of wood that release gates holding marbles
Marbles roll down a tube onto a slide and push the bread into the toaster
Toast is made!

3. Energy Projectile Motion Rotational Kinetic Energy Linear Momentum
Marble from mousetrap
Rotational Kinetic Energy
Marbles rolling down tube onto ramp
Linear Momentum
Collision of marbles and bread
Torque
Weight falling on seesaw lever

4. Design/Construction Issues
Not having an outline
Rubber band not breaking when pulling toaster lever down
Mousetrap not creating enough force to trigger the release of marbles
Bread not sliding down

5. Conclusion We learned the value of teamwork
Learned 1000 ways how not to make toast using Rube Goldberg device
The project overall was fun and helped us to understand the concepts that we learned in class
