A ball bearing is releasedIt trips a series of wooden leversFrom this a ping pong ball trips a gateThis releases a second ping pong ballBoth ping pong balls onto ramps into more

ball bearingsAll weights fall into a funnel which guides

them into a bucketThrough a system of pulleys the

counterweights lift the one kilogram mass

Stored Energy / Design

Stored Energy from balls Gravitational Potential Energy to Kinetic Energy

Design/Construction Issues The project took 10-12 hours Ball release Trial and error for timing the weight Lack of tools Height dimensions

Conclusion

This project allowed us to learn about teamwork and time management
