Needs a LEVER

Catapults????

Today, they are used for a variety of reasons, from toys to launching planes from aircraft carriers.

Criteria and Constraints

Objective

Students will

  • Use the engineering design process.
  • Determine Criteria and Constraints.
  • evaluate designs to see how well they meet the Criteria and Constraints of the problem.

Criteria and Constraints

Science Concepts

Slingshot

Have you ever used a slingshot? The more force you apply by pulling back the rubber band on the slingshot, the bigger the force applied to the object or projectile. This means the projectile will go faster and father

Plastic Spoon Catapult

Have you ever launched something from a plastic spoon or fork? You might know that if you add more force by pulling the top of the spoon back father, the object goes faster and father.

FORCE

How do you think FORCE affects the speed of the Boulder and the distance it travels?

Available Items

Criteria and Constraints

  • Balloon = $0.25
  • String (1 ft) = $0.25
  • Twine (1 ft) = $0.30
  • Cardboard = $1.00
  • Tissue Paper (1 sheet) = $0.10
  • Cardstock (1 sheet) = $0.30
  • Coffee Stirrer = $0.15
  • Cotton Ball = $0.10
  • Toothpick = $0.10
  • Small Popsicle Stick = $0.25
  • Large Popsicle Stick = $0.40
  • Foil Sheet = $0.50
  • Thick Rubber Band = $0.25
  • Thin Rubber Band = $0.15
  • Pom Pom Ball = $0.30
  • Clothespin = $0.40
  • Plastic Plate = $1.00
  • Paper cup = $1.00
  • Plastic Spoon = $0.25

Returns: You can return 5 UNUSED items for a full refund. After 5 items, 20% will be deducted from the full price. For example, if you return an unused balloon, you would recieve $0.20 back, not $0.25. You MAY negiotiate or trade with other groups. Tape and glue are nonrefundable.

  • Clear Tape = $0.50 per day
  • Masking Tape = $0.50 per day
  • Glue Stick = $0.75 per day
  • Liquid Glue = $1.00 per day
20% is equal to 1/5 Divide the amount by 5. Take the quotient and subtract it from the total.
$0.25 divided by 5 is $0.05 $0.25 minus $0.05 = $0.20

Criteria and Constraints

Scenario

Your Task.

You, the farmer, are in the process of cleaning up your fenced backyard so that you can plant a vegetable garden. The yard is filled with heavy, large rocks. You need to move the rocks over the fence into the pond. What are some ways that you can do this? A CATAPULT! Your job is to create a catapult that will allow you to propel the rocks over the fence into the pond.

Criteria and Constraints

Examples

Criteria and Constraints

Examples

Criteria and Constraints

Rules

Your catapult must be free standing.

You may redesign/recreate your prototype.

You may test your prototype during the design process.

You may only use the supplies provided.

You do not have to use all of your supplies.

Criteria and Constraints

Rules

The pond is surrounded by a beautiful meadow of wildflowers and lush green grass. This area is mowed twice a year, so large rocks will be a hazard to the person mowing the meadow. Therefore, you should not shoot any boulders into the meadow. If you do, you will lose 5 points for each boulder landing in the meadow.

It is permissible to throw the rocks into the forest. However, you will only earn 10 points for rocks that land in that area.

Your goal is to propel the rocks into the pond where you will earn 20 points each time you hit the target. The team with the most points after 20 trials will be declared the winner of the contest.

Each rock catapulted outside of the farmer’s and will deduct 15 points from your team’sscore.

10

Rocks that do not make it over the fence will score your team no points.

Essential Question

Next

How can we use science and engineering to build a device that helps solve a problem?
  • Decide quién tiene cada trabajo.
  • El GERENTE DE PROYECTO anotará los nombres de los estudiantes para cada trabajo.
  • El GERENTE DE PROYECTO debe pasar página e IDENTIFICAR EL PROBLEMA.
  • TODOS esbozan una idea.
  • Puedes usar Google Classroom para hacerlo.
  • Asegúrate de enumerar los materiales que necesitarás para tu idea.
  • El TÉCNICO elegirá la idea y anotará los materiales en la orden de compra.
  • Decide who has what job
  • The PROJECT MANAGER will write down the names of the students for each job.
  • The PROJECT MANAGER needs to turn the page and IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM.
  • EVERYONE sketches an idea. You may use Google Classroom to do this.
  • Be sure to list the supplies you would need for your idea.
  • TECHNICIAN will choose the idea and write down the supplies on the purchase order.
  • Begin building

Project Manager

Data Analyst

Technician

IIf you are in a group of 4, you will have two technicians

  • provide the group with instructions
  • manage time
  • keep everyone on task
  • ensure each step of the project is completed efficiently
  • can ask the teacher questions
  • take the lead on all hands-on tasks, such as building the design
  • following directions from the Project Manager
  • ensure the physical aspects of the project are completed accurately
  • Record the data generated by the project
  • organize the data
  • graph the data (you will be taught how to do this)
  • help analyze results

Launch into Learning!

Project Manager:

At the end of each class, do the Daily Check in. Discuss it with your group.

EXAMPLE

Let's Begin

VARIABLES

New Learning

Think about Variables when you are planning.

Constant Variable things that remain the same throughout the experiment.

Independent Variable what is measured or observed in the experiment

Dependent Variable the one thing changed by the scientist in the experiment

Constant + Independent = Dependent

Criteria and Constraints

Catapult

Building a Catapult

What are some key design goals when designing a catapult?

THINK before you Build.

What angle should be used to launch an object the farthest?

Criteria and Constraints

Accuracy vs. Precision

Accuracy: Accuracy measures how close results are to the true or known value.

Precision: Precision measures how close results are to one another.

Imagine you are using a catapult to shoot ping Pong balls at a target. You shoot 5 ping pong balls and they all hit the top right corner of the target even though you are aiming for the center bull's eye.

Are your shots accurate? Are your shots precise?

Lever and Fulcrum Exploration
Goal: Understand how the position of the fulcrum affects force and distance.

Materials: Pencil, ruler, and paper

  • Fulcrum: the support point that allows a lever to move something; think of the middle point of a seesaw, which is the fulcrum where the board balances.
  • Lever: a plank that rests on something underneath and moves up and down. For example, a seesaw is a lever.
  • Load : The object you're lifting.
  • Effort: The force applied to make the object move.
