5 Essential Question What is an effective water wheel design?

6 Hypothesis I believe if I design my water wheel by_______________ it will turn when water is poured on it.

7 Design Criteria You must use a paper plate to create a wheel that will turn when water is poured over it and raise a paper clip on string.

8 Constraints Must use the following materials: > paper plate
> tape Tools: > ruler > scissors

9 Vocabulary Water Wheel: A machine that converts moving water into useful energy to power things.

10 Vocabulary Hydroelectric: Electricity produced by moving water.

11 Vocabulary Force: A push or pull on an object that results in a change of direction and/or speed.
