“Drop it” Rube Goldberg project

The ball is dropped out of the bucket into the shoe box
The ball goes through the shoebox until the end where there is a hole
The tennis ball gets stopped by a wall of lego and hits a marble that travels down a ramp
The marble falls off the table onto a bigger ramp
The marble goes down the ramp
The marble then falls into a red solo cup
Then the marble hits the spacebar of the laptop starting the song “Drop it Like its Hot” by Snoop Dogg

Energy Transfers:

A/B- these are both potential energy and then they turn to kinetic when they are hit

D/E/F/G- these are all gravitational energy because the marble falls lower and lower
