Our goal was to build a Rube Goldberg Machine that would turn on a calculator. Most of our supplies came from Lowes, other parts were from around the house. The cost of the project came out to around 14 dollars.
4
Golf ball rolls down ramp falls into electrical box The box swings around the post and collides with the pulley The pulley rotates causing cup to pour water into funnel Water shoots out of funnel causing the dominos to fall over one another Dominos set off mouse trap Mouse trap sets off the next teams device and lifts the lever that turns on the calculator
5
Velocity of golf ball- Conservation of energy As ball travels around dowel- Centripetal motion Box colliding with pulley turning the pulley causing cup to pour water into funnel- Conservation of momentum, Rotational energy Water shoots out of funnel- Projectile motion Dominos topple each other- Collision Mouse trap- Torque
6
Total time invested into project was around 7 hours Only real problem was getting cup to pour water into funnel.
