Your team is now confronted by a tunnel that then leads to the dimensional gate. Your amazing piece of tech (turning out to be very useful) indicates that the dimensional gate is at the end of the tunnel and must be entered at a speed of 20mph. It also indicates the angle and height of the incline and the length of the tunnel as displayed in the following screenshot from your tech. The tech also indicates that the base of the tunnel is made of a different surface than that of the incline. Your tech indicates that the incline is made of Leannium and you have conducted previous tests on this material that indicates that a sled can rest on an incline of the material without sliding as long as the angle of the incline is less than or equal to 14º. At the top of the incline are two sleds. You have one chance of escape, for all four of your group members to push the sled down the incline and get in, move through the tunnel and then the dimensional gate. Will you be successful?

Learning Goals Week 5

You are a gaggle of scientists who have invented an incredibly expensive new form of the game curling. An old spectrometer has been boxed up in a wooden box and is ready for removal to the great lab in the sky after doing its bit for science. The spectrometer has been placed at the top of a concrete ramp, and you all have created a scoring zone at the base of the ramp based on how far the box moves past the ramp. Teams have been made, lines have been drawn, and reputation is on the line. Your team decides to science the shit out of this game and creates a computational model of the motion of the box when it starts with no push. Alas, your programmer has ingested far too many beverages and the model does not seem to be working correctly. Your turn is coming up, create a more accurate model that predicts the motion of the box to the end of the ramp in order to help you to become victorious. (Hint: you really have to consider the coordinate system of an inclined plane and how it would translate to code).

The all-powerful and all-seeing Amazon is doing tests on their new drone delivery system. They are creating computational models to model the motion of boxes as they experience different scenarios. Your group will be in charge of modeling one of the scenarios. You need to create a model of the box moving along the conveyor belt and then dropping down the open chute. You need to ensure that you create a working model where the box will drop through the chute without hitting the sides. The box is made of wood and the conveyor belt is made of rubber. Make sure the model indicates the size of all the forces acting on the box at all times.
