Third class. Because they are good for speed and longer movements and are arranged: FEL; Flucrum - Effort - Load. Other examples include brooms, fishing poles, and even your knees. On the mouse trap car the fulcrum is the bar that the spring is wound upon. The effort is the pressure on the snapper's lever arm that comes from the spring unwinding, and the load is at the end of the lever arm where the string is attached, the string that gets wound around the main axle and causes the wheels to turn when the spring is released.
Static friction, which is required to keep the mouse trap car in place before it moves, and kinetic friction, which acts to slow down the movement of the mouse trap car as it rolls along.
The variables for a mouse trap car could include factors such as the weight of the vehicle, the size of the wheels, the type of propulsion system used (rubber band, mousetrap spring), and the surface friction of the wheels on the ground. Each of these variables can affect the performance and efficiency of the mouse trap car.
The two types of friction affecting mouse trap cars are rolling friction, which occurs when the wheels of the car are in contact with the surface, and sliding friction, which occurs between the moving parts of the car, such as the axles and the mousetrap mechanism. These frictional forces can affect the efficiency and speed of the mouse trap car.
A carjack is a class 2 lever because the load (the car being lifted) is between the effort (the force applied to the handle) and the fulcrum (the contact point with the ground).
Potential energy in a mouse trap car is stored in the tension of the mousetrap's spring. As the spring is wound or compressed, it gains potential energy due to the stored elastic potential energy. When the trap is released, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, propelling the car forward.

It is better to use small trap cars as the larger ones can prevent no use to trapping a mouse the small traps are much quicker to get the mouse/rats.
the farthest mouse trap car that i could find was 111 meters which is about 364 feet.
The best way to build a mouse trap car is to add four wheels to a peace of wood and add a mouse trap
It's the body of the car, yo.

The one my son just did for his Physics class went 19.5 meters, so they can go at Least that...

CD's make good wheels for a mouse trap car. They provide little friction and the large diameter will help you get the most distance.
A mouse trap car that will successfully travel a long distance is one that has a long bar connected to the arm of the trap. This works because it makes is possible to have it accelerate longer.
you simply do what ever you want
