Newton’s Three Laws of Motion at St. Ed

Newton’s Three Laws of Motion was performed in Clay Harper’s physical science class at St. Edmund High. Harper’s students were instructed to build an originally designed vehicle powered solely by the energy of one standard sized mousetrap. The engineering activity required students to build a mousetrap car based on certain constraints/materials. The activity did a great job of requiring students to consider trade offs, design a solution, test their design, make changes in their design, and then make a final decision about their solution based on data and performance.
