    installed in the model car, and this lever arm is then connected to the car’s rear axle with string. At rest, when potential energy is at its lowest, the lever arm is leaning towards the front axle. This is the case when the string is not wound up. The car is wound up by rotating the rear axle so as to wind the string tightly and completely to the point where the lever arm is pulled fully back towards the rear axle. A downward pressure on the car is then applied to hold the wound up string in…

    several biomechanical models using the AnyBody Modeling System (Dubowsky, 2008). These musculoskeletal models simulate the relationships between the magnitude of shoulder joint forces throughout propulsion and other factors such as the relative rear-axle placement (Dubowsky, 2008). These tools can be used to help prescribe the appropriate wheelchair to a given user by predicting and then minimizing injury…

    by simply setting the trap and letting it loose. The wound spring has a ton of potential energy stored in it. The power from the spring propels the car. A rod, or lever, (typically used to snap the neck of a mouse), pulls the string wound around an axle. The string unwinds, converting the potential energy from the wound spring into kinetic energy; causing the wheels to rotate, pushing the mousetrap forward. This process basically converts the energy from the spring into rotational energy which…

    winning NASCAR: a wooden chassis and body, plastic wheels and a spoiler, metal axles, and a sheet of stickers. My dad had acquiesced to my begging him to take me, an enthusiastic eight-year-old car guy, to Home Depot to add to my collection of toys. I gave the instructions a cursory glance before casting them aside. The finished product seemed simple enough. Instructions? Who needs them? First, the wheels had to go on the axle.

    my balloon car will reflect greatly upon the performance of it. Specifically, the thinness of my wheels as well as the smooth material of the straws as part of the axles allows not only more speed but a greater amount of distance covered. This is due to the reduced friction or rubbing that the materials exert onto the ground and the axles. In addition to that, the position of the straw should play a factor in influencing my hypothesis. As seen in my design, the straw is positioned through the…

    and not be willing to provide a refund? I do not think it was right for the car dealer to sell the defective car with the bent axle to young minor. I would have to assume that the car dealer must have made an inspection on the vehicle before they had decided to sell the used car, to be sure that the car was in working condition. I would have to guess that the bent axle was noticeable at the time of the inspection. The car dealer should have provided the refund to the minor car buyer, John.…
