Robotic Arm Challenge
Did you successfully complete the challenge? Describe how it went
I thought that the challenge went well because…MY team was one of the three teams that successfully lifted the 2 liter bottle 15cm high and 1 meter along
What are the rules, equipment and tools that you used for this challenge? If someone else read this would they understand how to play?
A meter ruler was used to measure the distance that we needed put the coke bottle
You must raise the coke bottle up 15cm high before placing it down 1 meter away.
What are 2 more aspects of your design that you think worked well?
- The paper structure we made was very strong and did not break while we were lifting the bottle.
- the string was in A position that made it easier to tighten
- are handles were made out of paper towel and newspaper meaning it would be more effective
What are 2 more aspects of your design that you think that did not work well or as intended?
- The lasso of string was hard to pull tight around the bottle and we had to redo it twice.
The name “Robotic Arm Challenge” is a good name for this challenge, can you think of 2 more names that you could give this challenge?
- Levitating coke magic
- coca cola crain
- flying coke
Room 11 and 12 are thinking of doing the same challenge, can you think of any tips and tricks that you could give them that would help them do the challenge better?
- I would think of a different way of holding up the bottle instead of string because the string struggled to hold the Coke bottles weight.
- that you can have two people holding the structure and can be on both sides of the meter
You had only 5 pieces of equipment to use for this challenge, these were:- Coke Bottle
-string
- tape
- news paper
-paper towels
If you did this challenge tomorrow what equipment or rules would you allow, switch out or take away?
- I would add in different shaped bottles some with wider lids than others so that we could pick them up in different ways.
this is a picture of my creation…
