Today’s Activity Popsicle Stick Slingshot Objective Create a slingshot that will propel a ping pong ball as far as possible.
22
Design Considerations Convert as much of the rubber band (elastic potential) energy into kinetic energy of the ball. Have a strong and stable enough structure to support the force of the rubber band. What is the best possible way to launch the ball?
