State the problem of this experiment: We dom’t have enough picks for all corners so the conrners that don’t have picks sunk first.
State your hypothesis for this experiment: The bigger the base area is, the more weight boat can hold.
How many pennies did your boat hold? We got 100.
What was your thinking/reasoning behind the design of your boat? If it more like a square, the pressure would be uniform distributed in all base area so it can hold more weight.
What would you keep/change on your boat design if you were to do this again? We would keep the whole body same but add more picks on the bottom.
