  1. The Spiraling Trashcan of Death Mark 3 Created by: Shelby Campbell Kevin Dowling Marko Gill Jasmine Kelley

  2. Overview • A copper BB shoots through a vinyl tube track for the first leg of our roller coaster. The rubber tubing is attached to a peg board and goes through several loops and a spiral while working its way down the board. • The BB then travels through a series of switchbacks constructed from poster board during the second leg of the journey.

  3. Analysis of Stored Energy • Copper BB • Gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy • Kinetic energy to gravitational potential energy at the splice • Gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy

  4. Death by Trashcan • Our team experienced several setbacks through the “design process” which ultimately resulted in the death of a certain trashcan including: • Not enough track • Excessively complicated ideas • Problems during the “ride” • Dignity

  5. Conclusion • The final product, “The Spiraling Trashcan of Death Mark 3,” took approximately 5 hours to build and will take approximately 15 seconds for the copper BB to complete its run.
