    ABSTRACT The purpose of this project is to determine the effect the size of an automobile’s wheel radius will have on that vehicle’s performance. To determine this‚ the distance a car travels when tested with the same propulsion force but different wheel diameter is measured. We expect that there will be an optimum size that should be utilized in order to achieve maximum efficiency. A larger or smaller wheel size should change the distance that the car will travel. The cars we

    What simple machines did you incorporate into your nifty lifting machine? 1. In the nifty lifting machine Kenny‚ Kaylee and I used three simple machines. We used a pulley system as our first simple machine. The pulleys are what allowed pulling the 600 gram can up the five centimeters. My group also used a wheel and axle‚ which is the crank that we used to pull up the cans. The wheel is the gear and the axle is the dowel rod we used to tie the rope around. Then we used a wedge to stop the gear on
