2. Over view…
Our object is to use marbles to raise a flag and keep the energy going and start the next Rube Goldberg Device.

3. How it runs… Starts with the other groups mouse trap.
That pulls a string to
Release marbles down
a funnel.
Those in turn roll down
PVC pipe to spin a wheel, which will raise
our flag.

4. How it runs…continued…
The marbles will continue to roll down another piece of PVC pipe into a basket.
The basket will drop, which pulls a string to raise another pulley.
This will raise another PVC pipe which will release another marble to roll down and start the next device.

5. The numbers… Mgh=1/2mv^2 v=5.43ft/sec
Mgh+1/2mv^2 =1/2mv^2 v=8.667ft/sec
Mv(sin())=8.667ft/sec v=8.667ft/sec
Mgh+1/2mv^2 =1/2mv^2 v=5.065ft/sec
m1v1+m2v2=(m1+m2)v3 v3=2.5975ft/sec
1/2mv^2 =10.488ft/sec

6. Conclusion… After many trails and a few modifications
our device and a few runs to Chick Fil A
our device was a complete success.
