My Rube Goldberg project that I did with Jesse is called “Boat Pop”, it starts off my me calling Jesse’s phone, which vibrates and makes it slide down and knock down some dominoes that pushes a marble down a ramp made out of pool noodles and popsicle sticks. Then it drops into a boat (that has a needle on the tip) that is on a slant, and the weight of the marble moves the boat toward the balloon and popping it.

The 3 energy transfers that we had in Boat Pop was from the phone to hitting the dominoes (Potential to Kinetic), the marble falling, sliding through the ramp (Potential to Gravitational) and the boat sliding down and popping the balloon (Mechanical to Sound).
