Marble Challenge

 

 

1. Our group (Michael C, Tommy H, Kyle F, Michael M, and myself) were not able to complete the actual challenge, but were able to construct our device that would have been used to propel our marble

 

2. We constructed a slide for our marble (shown below) that guided the marble as it accelerated downwards. The guide was built of straws wrapped in tape, connected by toothpicks. The cup at the top helped guide the marble. The device did help guide the marble as it accelerated, but in our first and only test, failed to guide it directly into the cup that the marble was supposed to ultimately end up within.
