Physics with Mr.Heerschap!
Rube Goldbergs!
We recently completed Rube Goldbergs, my partner was Natalie Y., and we created a Rube that releases a balloon and pops a confetti popper. We made 6 equations evolving velocity, mechanical advantage, and other calculations of parts of our Rube. We showcased our Rube at an exhibition at the Durango Discovery Museum! This project immensely approved my problem solving skills as well as my ability to do calculations.
Bottle Rockets
Recently we constructed bottle rockets in physics. My partner was Riley Rifkin, and we created a one bottle rocket, with a nose cone and parachute. We launch tested them on the 1st of November and ours was once of the highest of the period. We then had an exhibition on 3rd, we launched twice because the first time there was a trigger issue and the second time the rocket didn't fly well at all and launched only about 7 meters high.

Design-a-Lab.
Our first lab was a design a lab, we chose our partners and chose the purpose of our lab. My partner was Marisa and our lab was about the prunification of fingers in different liquids. We submersed our fingered in a variety of liquids to study the quickness and the prunifying that took place on our fingers.
