winding the spring on your mousetrap car‚ you store energy in the spring as potential energy. This stored potential energy will convert energy into kinetic energy as the mouse-trap car begins to move. But there is friction and in order to overcome friction you have to do more work. Friction converts energy into heat and sound which takes away energy from your motion‚ causing the car to stop as its energy is turned into other forms. When designing a mousetrap car‚ there are two variables that truly

Types of Sports Cars Many people have a great fascination for sports cars. These machines have a lot of power and torque‚ and most importantly are lower to the ground‚ contributing to proper aerodynamics against the wind. Moreover‚ they are generally available in either two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive. Two-wheel drive ones are usually used for road racing or drifting‚ whereas AWD sports cars are used for rally racing. Just like any other cars‚ they are also divided into certain groups.

This year in science‚ we were paired up in groups to build a car powered only by a rubber band. There was a lot of physics and thought put behind the planning of our car. The rubber band moved the car by storing up elastic potential energy which then turned into kinetic energy when released. Newton’s Laws of Motion also come in handy when thinking about how to keep the car moving. “An object in motion stays in motion.” There was also a lot of thought put into the wheels. We had to be aware of the

He tried to turn the vehicle aside‚ but his clutch wire broke and the machine got out of his control. It ran into a passerby and hit the pavement.
