My task today is to make this blog post because i did this a couple days ago. On friday we made a hero engine, a hero engine is a machine made out of plastic. To make it you tie a string to a can put some holes in the can and fill it up with water and then you take it out and...
it spins!!!!!!!.
We did it because my teacher set it out for me to do. we did about 6 hero engines we used Vcans from the rubbish and Charlies cans also, from, the, rubbish.
I found that the big holes spun faster then the little holes that were poked on our can.
I enjoyed making the hero engines of course.
I am still wondering if i can make the smaller holes faster then the big holes.
Well done Noah. What was your faster hero engine?
ReplyDeletethe v can with 8 holes was the fastest
DeleteGreat investigator skills Noah! I wonder what is the number of times your can spun with each hole? How can you maximise the number of spins? Nice work! 😎
ReplyDeletethanks mrs hall
DeleteHi Noah,
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you have been busy with your Hero engine tasks and having some fun at the same time. Did you experiment again and make smaller holes in your can to see if it would spin faster?

Deleteyes i have made smaller i made pencil sized holes
DeleteWell done Noah! Did you make all the holes in the cans differently, with big and small size holes in different places? It looks like you were having a great time!
