Balloon Powered Race Cars

Objectives to create a balloon powered race car for maximum speed and distance to incorporate Newton's Laws of Motion to learn how to use the formula Speed= Distance / Time

Materials balloon(s) pen barrel or straw various materials to construct the racers

Rules The car must be powered by no more than 2 balloons. You can build the car out of anything. It must have at least three wheels. Wheels are defined as anything that is round and goes around. The wheels cannot be wheels from a toy car. They must be made out of something that was not originally meant to be used as wheels. The car may not leave the ground. The car must be durable enough to finish the race without losing parts.

The wheels cannot be wheels from a toy car. They must be made out of something that was not originally meant to be used as wheels. The car may not leave the ground. The car must be durable enough to finish the race without losing parts.

Procedure You will work in pairs. You will gather materials and assemble your car at home. On race day we will set up a track in our classroom. THIS MEANS ABSOLUTELY NO LATE PROJECTS! You will race your cars in class. Cars that follow all of the rules will be eligible for awards. Winning cars will be displayed on web page

Procedure Awards will be given in three categories. Best Looking Car Fastest Car (in first 1 m) Farthest Distance Traveled

Procedure Awards will be given in three categories. Best Looking Car Fastest Car (in first 1 m) Farthest Distance Traveled

My partner is _____________________________. Race day is _______________________. Balloon Racer Project Rubric Distance _____(m) / Time _______(sec) = Speed _____(m/second) Car traveled more than 5 m. Car traveled between 4 m and 5 m. Car traveled between 3 m and 4 m. Car traveled between 2 m and 3 m. Car traveled between 1 m and 2 m. Car traveled between 0 m and 1 m. Car moved. Car built but did not move. Car did not follow rules. 0 Car not turned in today,
