A New Innovation of CarsDESIGN:
Our car consists of a wooden body, two wheel and axles, and a hammer pendulum.
Benefits of the Hammerhead Car:Renewable energy Gravitys got your backHigh rate of accelerationNo hassle of a dead batteryNo gasolineVery sturdy and long lastingCost efficient
Average Cost MaterialsCost (quantity for 1 prototype)Wood$7Hammer$10Tinker Toys$2MaterialsCost (quantity for 1 car)Car minus engine$18,000Pendulum Engine$2,000Total Cost$20,000On average, gas would cost you $9,000 a year! Gas for The Hammerhead costs $0!
Gravitational Potential Energy: energy an object processes due to gravity Energy stored to convert into kinetic energy or motion
Prototype: PE = 4.34 JCar: PE = 6,273.27 J (mass of car contributes to hammers force - larger potential energy)A lot of energy is converted into thermal energy which is cause by friction.
