Team Members: Mandi Hall Rob Wilkins Jennifer Williams

2 The Team

3 Materials Plywood Balsa Wood Spring Funnel Golf Ball Stamp Felt Hinge
Super Glue

4 Introduction The goal of our device is to successfully stamp a piece of paper. The golf ball launches from the platform, then knocks a ball loose. The balls then flip a handle and release the stamp.

5 The Lazy Dog Printing Press

6 Projectile Motion Trajectory Equation
(y-y0) = tan(Θ)*(x-x0)-(g/(2v02))*(1+tan2(Θ))*(x-x0)2 The first golf ball is launched into the funnel by a spring.

7 Conservation of Momentum
COM Equations: mA*vA + mB*vB = mA*vA’ + mB*vB’ e = -(vB’ – vA’) vB – vA The first golf ball collides with the second tipping the third ball in.

8 Conservation of Energy
COE Equation: 1/2mvo2+mgh0+1/2kxo2+Win = 1/2mvf2+mghf+1/2kxf2+Eloss When the golf balls strike the handle and release the stamp energy is conserved.

9 Conclusions Conservation of Energy Conservation of Momentum
Achieved with stamp Conservation of Momentum Achieved with golf balls Projectile Motion Achieved with launcher Repeatability It works almost every time
