The last section should be a lever with a pin sticking up out of one end, so that
when the first end of it is depressed, the pin rises to strike the balloon.
The previous sections, including whatever eventually depresses the first end
of the lever, are all up to you, and are limited only by your imagination and
creativity.
First you make a pulley with a needle conected on it in a certain angle. Then you hold the balloon in the air with something in a certain angle. Then finally you pull the pulley down, which will make the needle go up near the balloon, and when the needle gets on the balloon the balloon will Pop!
There are probably a googleplex of answers to this question, as every Rube Goldberg machine would do this in a different manner.
Rube Goldberg was not a scientist, he was a humorist. He devised insanely impractical devices to amuse the public. To this day, any device that does something relatively simple (cracking an egg, for example) in a ridiculously complicated way, can be called a Rube Goldberg device.
Cartoonist, Rube Goldberg, was born in San Francisco, California on July 4, 1883. He died in New York City on December 7, 1970. In addition to being a cartoonist, Rube was also a writer, an inventor, and an engineer.
Some fun things are...put a marble in a cup, light a candle, ring a bell, open a trap door, pour water. The entire principle of the Goldberg contraptions was to show how impossibly complex machinery had to be to do a simple task. Have fun designing your machine.
Anything but a volcano, they're too cliche.(Improvement Begins Here)That's technically true, they are quite cliche. But the best science fair project depends on what you think will set a good impression on you, and your friends helping you, and what you basically think can be added or improved from you. It's your project, so you decide what you do with it.
I would go directly to the manufacturer's website to purchase their machine. Another place to buy a Rube Goldberg machine would be the website Coolplaces or you can even try to build a Rube Goldberg machine with help from Wikipedia.
