What is a mousetrap car?
a mousetrap car is a simple machine that can be used in races. it can also help people to gain problem solving skills A mousetrap car, is a group of simple machines used together to use in races. It can be made from recycled items, and can be very cheap depending on the items you use to make your car. I used; Moustrap, CD's, ruberbands, wood plank, nails.
Will tape cause friction to wheels of a mousetrap car?
Yes, tape can cause friction on the wheels of a mousetrap car, especially if it is not smooth or if there are imperfections in the tape. It is important to use low-friction materials to ensure that the mousetrap car can move smoothly and efficiently.
What is an axle hook for a mousetrap car?
A mousetrap car is a small vehicle having only one form of motive power being from a mousetrap. Variations include the use of multiple traps, or very big rat traps, for added power.
What is an axle hook on a mousetrap car?
An axle hook on a mousetrap car is a small hook or loop attached to the axle, typically made of metal or plastic. It is used to connect the mousetrap mechanism to the axle, allowing the energy stored in the mousetrap to be transferred to the wheels to propel the car forward.
What kind of energy does a mousetrap car use?
A mousetrap car uses mechanical energy stored in the spring of the mousetrap. When the trap is released, the spring unwinds, converting the mechanical energy into kinetic energy that propels the car forward.
How do you make a mousetrap car go far?
Use Cd's as wheels to make less friction
What wheels should you use for mousetrap cars?
Old CD's work well.
How does a mousetrap car use potential energy?
A standard mousetrap works first by luring the mouse with peanut butter or cheese. When a mouse smells the food that is located in the mousetrap and comes to take a bite, the trap snaps and traps the mouse suffocating it and squishing it to death.
How do you catch the mouse?
Use a mousetrap.
How do you sketch a mousetrap car?
with a pencil (before answer) well if you want to you can use some graph paper and make an scale drawing...it is really easy im doing it in industrial tech. You use a pencil, and some paper. Preferabally, graph paper. All you have to do is set your mousetrap car down, and start from the sideview. Then draw a front view, and a birds eye view.
How do you make a mousetrap car pull weight?
if you mean "how do you make a mousetrap pull a car's weight" then you do it through pulleys. for example, if a mousetrap exerted 10N of force and a car needed 10000N to pull it, the pulley you use would need a distance input : distance output ratio of 1000:1 (aka if you pull one side 1000 meters, the other side moves 1 meter). this would enable you to move the car theoretically, but in reality, the distance the car moves would be so small that it would be useless, and even then, it is more likely for whatever rope/chain you are using to just stretch slightly.
