Well we had an eventful day in Physics. It was the big testing day of Windmills and Rube Goldberg machines! We began with the windmill of my group, Casey, Lauren and Bryan and our windmill succeeded in lifting 2000 grams, which no other windmill could lift. I did get the chance to see Amalea's group including Chrissy and Clay, and their Rube Goldberg was successful. This was the last I was able to see as my group made a journey out to cars after disassembling our windmill. I do know that the other Rube Goldberg was successful and no other windmill succeed in lifting more weight than ours did. There was no homework over the weekend. As for the qod, What do you think were some of the biggest barriers to making the windmills lift more weight? I think the biggest barriers were the construction, because our nail popped out int the lifting process, the material of the wheel, it seems the paper could only do so much, and the size, seeing that we had a huge wheel and it lifted only 2000 grams.
So it was a pretty awesome day in Physics, Stay Classy third period!
