Test 3-
Hypothesis:
If the balloon is used as a rubber band around the wheels (Cd's), then there will be greater friction.
Procedure:
- Cut top and bottom of balloon off.
- Cut that in half
- Stretch "rubber band" around each wheel (Cd)
- Repeat steps 1-3 for the other set of wheels
A forward force was neccisary to make the vehicle move. As well as, compared to before the vehicle did not accelerate as fast and didn't go as far.
Conclusion:
While the rubber bands did indeed create friction, it caused the vehicle to slow down excessively. The hypothesis was proven correct; however, the balloon rubber bands will have a negative impact on the vehicle. Therefore, the balloon rubber bands will not be used on the vehicle.
