Mousetrap Car - Explained: The mousetrap car project is a classic physics challenge: Build a vehicle that can travel as far or as fast as possible by using only the energy that can be stored in a single mousetrap.
By winding the string around the axle, the mouse-trap's spring is wound creating stored/potential energy. When the mousetrap car is released the mousetrap’s spring unwinds the string off of the axle causing the wheels to turn and off the vehicle goes.
1 Μαρ 2012 · The car shown in Fig. 1, and used in this paper for analysis, is a “hybrid car,” one designed to optimize use of the potential energy from both a mousetrap power plant and gravity, via a starting position atop a half-meter high ramp.
Design and build a car that runs on energy provided by a mousetrap! Use a prototype mousetrap car to test different variables and then modify the design of the car to optimize its performance.
The mousetrap car project is an awesome way for young students to learn how to tweak different variables in order to enhance the performance of a vehicle design. We will learn how to build a mouse trap car that can go as far as possible in 4 easy steps, and how to calculate the mechanical advantage of your design.
3 Μαΐ 2020 · To maximize your vehicle’s stability, you must optimize the vehicle width of your mousetrap vehicle. This increases the base-area of your device, resulting in a more stable vehicle. It is important to balance vehicle width with your devices weight for the best results.
Construct your redesigned mousetrap car. Include a scale drawing of your final design, showing the size and location of the wheels, arm, mousetrap, and body. Include a photograph of your group’s car. Use additional sheets of paper if necessary. Technology Education: Learning by Design Copyright Pearson Education, Inc. 7
