The Stapler Project
By: Chad, Ben, Matt, and Thibaut

2. This is our project Built mostly with items found in Estabrook 13
Items used:
PBC pipe
Wood Board
Stapler
Metal Hooks
Steel Ball
Kinetics Wheel
Springs
Fishing Line

3. In The Beginning Fishing line is attached to the mouse trap
Line then tips the cup over
This allows the ball to roll into the pipe

4. As The Ball Rolls The ball falls into the pipe
The ball then hits the hammer
The hammer then hits the stapler, stapling the paper

5. Rocketman As the stapler goes down it pushes down on a piece of metal
This piece pulls out a nail that releases the pipe, launching the green man
This man is launched by a set of two springs on the other side of the fulcrum.

6. In The End
After the ball hits the hammer, it rolls back through another pipe
Ending in the pocket we created using a spindle and a piece of metal.

7. Purpose
Purpose: To staple papers hand free and also launch the little green man.
Assumptions: Mass of Ball=.067kg; Mass of Flask=.041kg; Mass of Man=.013kg; Mass of Hammer=.558kg;
Equations:F=kx
V of Ball=Sqrt(2gh)
