*Intro: Reuben Garret Lucius Rube Goldberg was an American cartoonist, sculptor, author, engineer, and inventor.

Rube created a contraption that deliberately preforms a very simple task in a very complex manner, usually including multiple chain reactions. Some colleges now compete in annual Rube Goldberg machine contests. *Project History -Our group went through many changes during the process of creating our machine. -Our project changed with our ideas and our rough draft looks nothing like our final project. -Over the past week we have been set back by many factors that took time for compromise

*Step 7:

Step seven consists of half a funnel, a rubber band, and a marble. As the lever hits the rubber band the marble is released and rolls down the funnel. Physics: The funnel is hit with 3.6N, which releases the marble from potential to kinetic energy.

*Step 1:

The fist step consists of a marble rolling down an incline plane. Physics: MA=D/H MA= 6cm/3cm= 2 9.8m/s2 2= 4.9 m /s2 (acceleration of Marble)

*Step 2:

Our second step consists of a marble falling down a a funnel that leads downward through a tunnel. Physics: F=ma F=3.11 F=.ooo31kg(10m/s ) = 0.0311 N of force of falling marble

*Step 3:

The third step contains a screw, which a marble twisted down and accelerates. Physics: MA= D/H MA= 36cm/28cm= 1.28

*Step 4:

Step four has a line of dominoes that fall when the marble from step 2 hits the first standing one. It creates a wave of momentum as they fall. Physics: F= o.o311N -The amount of force that the marble applies to the first domino is the same force given as it knocks over other dominoes.

*Step 8: A plastic tube leads the marble from step seven to a cup where it triggers a pulley to roll upward. Physics: F=ma F=.00473kg (9.8m/s2 ) = F=4.6 N *Step 9: The pulley rolls upward when the marble drops into the cup. Physics: MA= 2 *Step 10: The pulley pulls away the wooden block releasing the tennis ball down the inclined plane. Physics: MA= D/H MA= 43cm/22cm MA= 1.95 Acceleration: 9.8m/s2 1.95 = 5.o2 m/s2 *Step 11 After the ball rolls down the inclined plane it hits the cup full of fish food. And the fish eat their dinner Physics: F=MA A= 5.02 m/s2 M= 0.05683 kg F= 0.05683 kg (5.02 m/s 2) F= .28 Newton

*Step 5:

The dominoes from step four hit the chain reaction of wood pieces with different mass and size. Physics: -The same force applies (F= 0.0311N) because the same force is carried.

*Step 6:

Step six is a class one lever that flies up when step five hits the left side of the lever. Physics: F=ma F=3.6N -The lever shoots up when falling object hits one end.
