Recommended Posts

so, i have to make a rubber band car for my 8th grade physics class. here are the exact guidelines/ rules-

 

your car must go atleast 6 meters

 

it can have no more than 2 #33 rubber bands

 

it must be able to travel the distance over and over again

 

you may not propel the car in a slingshot fashion

 

your car must have atleast 3 wheels

 

only household items, not intended for the purpose for which you used them, can be used

 

looks count, so make your car as attractive as possible

 

no mousetraps are allowed

 

no legos, tinkertoys, construx (etc.) or pinewood derby materials are allowed

 

no coffee cans or similar structures are allowed (including soup, soda, and tuna cans)

 

 

 

what do i do? ive already made 2 practice cars and thay both go less than 1/2 meter. Help?!
