Capacitor Car
Distance Graph
February 10, 2003
Mrs. Fortner is helping us with this our last group of graphing distance traveled by a car using a capacitor.
 
This group is also helping out with setting up RED ROVER to  SENSORSCITY for the 5th grade room.
 
We will send a program to run on SENSORSCITY.

 
Is there enough sun light to run the motor?
 
We can se it go around here and in the reflection outside the window.

Turn the generator.
 
How far will the car go?  Will it go this far?
 
30 turns goes 99 boards.
 
After all the data was gotten is was entered in a table then made into a graph.
 
When the program finished running at the LEGO City the data came back as a graph.
 
 
The graphs the students made were great.
