  • . To make the car go far, you need to convert the spring energy into motion as efficiently as possible.
  • . That means your car will travel slowly, but have a very high "gear ratio".
  • . If true to the letter of the rules, you'll have to carry any leftover pieces on board, whether they're used for propulsion or not.

  • . The mousetrap cannot be used to launch a toy car or other object to the required distance.
  • . The car will be tested by placing the spring of the mousetrap directly above a starting line.
  • . The trap will be released and the car will run until it comes to a complete stop.
  • . Some materials they may wish to have are the following: one mousetrap string rubber bands material for axles (dowel rods, all thread, ice cream push up axles--see helpful hints, etc...) wheels (lids, compact disks, records, butter tub lids etc...) Testing Materials: Meter stick or trundle wheel for measuring distance Masking tape for a starting line The assessment portion of this project will be based on three items: Quality and originality of design-A small portion of the student's grade should be based on the overall quality of the finished mousetrap car.
  • . The paper-Each student's paper should be graded based on the the explanation of the car and how the car works.
  • . Specific questions about the science behind the car should be included in the paper.
