| Abstract | The purpose of this project was to build a track that would take fifteen seconds for an object to go through. All materials had to fit in a half a meter by half a meter box. The major problem that we noticed right away was the fifteen second time limit. We had an original design that we later ended up discarding and starting over due to the little amount of space the materials had to fit in and the large amount of time that the cycle was required to take. We solved this problem by taking tubing and wrapping it around a bucket. The total time for the ball to complete the trip until the end of the bucket was thirteen and a half seconds. To use up the last second and a half we added a ramp at the end of the tubing so the ball would jump into a landing zone. Overall, the testing went flawlessly. The total time it took to complete the track during testing was sixteen seconds which was better than the required fifteen seconds. We worked well as a group and completed the task at hand. |
