Friction Vehicles by Quinn

Vehicles move because they have force, a push, but if you have too much of it, it will never stop.

That's why you need friction. Friction is important because it makes everything stop or slow down. It is like your rug or couch. It is very rough.

The propeller activity was very simple. You just took a vehicle, made sure that it can move, and then add a propeller, wrap it to store energy, and let it go. But sometimes it could get a little hard because you have to work with your group to find a way it can store energy and let it go. Energy is a very interesting topic.

The video above includes images taken by Quinn during an activity involving building and testing propeller-driven vehicles. Quinn also compiled the images to make the video.
